It's possible that Keith Olbermann talked about some of the 1979 Topps proof error cards in his three part series, but I was never able to find the third part where he talks about 1977 and up. Correction, it was a four part series and Olbermann only talks about 1977 in the last part.

Yes eBay is where I got mine several years ago. Also got some 79 Topps blank fronts that are sheet(hand) cut at the same time.
I will have to look and see if I can find Olbermans 4 part series.
