So I bought the lot of four autographed contracts in REA auctions last month and when I got back from my business trip to Norway, they had come in. The big prizes were the Theodore "Ted" Williams and Joe DiMaggio contracts for them appearing in a 1970s TV show, but there was also the Don Sutton contract with the US Golf Association confirming that he kept his amateur status by not accepting prize money to a tournament, and a Red Schoendienst contract as well.

The Schoendienst contract gives Xerox the right to make baseball cards of Red for educational purposes if they choose to for the minimum contract value of $1 prior to the end of 1981. I have since found the Mike Schmidt contract online in last year's REA auction. I tried searching for cards from this set, but couldn't easily and they're not listed in the Catalog of Vintage Baseball Cards. Did they ever make a set or even proof sheets? If so, it would be cool to get the Schoendienst card to go with the contract. Anyone ever seen a Xerox card from 1980-81? Are there any other contracts so that we could make a theoretical checklist?
