The other 28 were on what they called "header sleeves" that had 2 players on each panel and were folded right through the discs. These are blank backed and I consider them a separate set. There are several of those up for sale on EBay right now.
The 1979 boxes have "88 Stars" printed on them, so apparently Wiffle considered the twelve different boxes and the fourteen different bat and ball sleeves as all part of the same complete set.
