Thanks Mike! That letter is awesome. I agree that the first twenty four probably didn't sell as well as anticipated and they cut production of the last 12 and decided not to print the final 216. The question I have is why some of the SP's are more rare and valuable than others? Why Bull Tosi vs. one of the other players who was a bigger star?

One theory is that the cards on the corners of sheets were more likely to be damaged during printing and therefore are often the players with the least amount of high grade / quality cards. I have never been able to identify an uncut sheet of chicle's to substantiate this theory but I know others have done analysis on other sets and the theory often holds for these sets.
