1959 Bazooka Football SP's

[skelly]

I was wondering this, so I figured why not ask. For the baseball series in 59 Bazooka, It's pretty clear as to what cards are tougher, SP's etc... The story seems to check out, as a group of players were released after the original 9.

My question is that for football they list the Groza, Tracy and the Conerly as the single print cards. Now all of the 59 Bazooka football are somewhat rare, but I feel that I come across the Conerly much more than I see the Joe Perry or the Howie Ferguson. Thoughts, insights, and why are a couple cards SP's, were they added later, not on the same print sheet. Any thoughts / insights would be appreciated.

I don't know how the 59 Bazooka cards were printed but I do know this. The price guides / SMR / etc. are often not very accurate when it comes to really old and oddball sets. They probably just don't see enough transactions to be able to price individual cards accurately beyond the obvious stars. And even their pricing for star cards is sometimes way off base.
