Shouldn't there be 132 (minus the manager cards) since they parallel the A* sheet, which is 132 cards?

[QUOTE=Pat R;2419573]No because just like the player/manager cards that were mixed up from the C-D sheets it was only one half of the A sheet that had the A*B* cards.
Pat, Im confused, are you saying that A*B* cards were printed on sheets with 50% A* cards? I cant see the photo clearly so forgive me if that is what you are showing here, this doesn't look like a bold 40th sheet which is what those cards were printed on. Do you have a photo of an uncut sheet with A*B* cards?

Hi Dylan, are you saying that you think the layout for the bold 40th sheet and the A*B* sheet were different than this A sheet? These should be better images of the front and back. All of the confirmed A*B* subjects are on the top half of the sheet. [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] |

The A*B* cards are all printed with bold 40th logo. What I am trying to understand is if/why Topps would produce an A* sheet that is 50% A* and 50% A*B* cards. It seems to reason that the A*B* variation would affect all 132 cards on the sheet. What this means is:
Are you referring to Daryl Boston's card or is there a different one per factory set? Boston is the only player who can be found regularly with A*B* and a non-bold 40th logo on back.

No, the layout would be the same for a Bold 40th logo A* sheet. The A*B* cards are all printed with bold 40th logo. What I am trying to understand is if/why Topps would produce an A* sheet that is 50% A* and 50% A*B* cards. It seems to reason that the A*B* variation would affect all 132 cards on the sheet. What this means is:
Admittedly I have no idea how Topps printed the sheets but some of the variations do give us some indication of how they might have been printed. I don't know why they would have only printed the A*B* code on half the sheet but I do think that's what they did. I know they are scarce but I think it's beyond coincidence that all of the cards on the top half of the sheet minus the managers are confirmed with an A*B* sheet code and none of the cards on the bottom half have been confirmed with an A*B* code plus you have the same thing with the reversed backs on the C-D sheet that only affected the bottom of those two sheets. As far as the layouts I think it stayed the same for most if not all of the printing of the sheets for the base cards. After I found the Bob Melvin RPD I also found a Donnie Hill with the same RPD. They are both found with bold and non bold logos and are in the same location on their sheets with Hill on the 5th card up on the right edge of the A sheet and Melvin in the same location on the B sheet. 91 Topps Melvin-Hill.jpg 91 Topps Melvin-Hill location.jpg |

Don't forget that the factory set has one A* B* card (for some strange unknown reason)
