I have this unopened pack that has the board and set of the red back cards. It also has 6 Current or Connie Mack All Stars mixed in with the redback panels

Here is a sharper scan of the game board that I found in my files. Also stumbled upon therein some of the three rarities from the 1951 Topps MLAS set that I had forgotten about (just kidding ).

The game board from the Ed-U-Cards set is essentially the same as the Red/Blue Backs board. It's a tri-folded (in both directions) sheet of paper and I only have the EUC version which measures roughly 2 5/8" x 2 15/16" folded (fold is not perfect) and 7" x 8 9/16" unfolded.

Thanks for the book plug guys and it can be d/l for free here: https://archive.org/details/ModernGu...blishedCopy2.2

Please note I am working on a second edition which will have a lot of updates and corrections. It may possibly be done this year (still awaiting two or three things I'd like to include) but more likely next, as I want to have it out before the 2025 National.

I'm curious as to what those game boards sell for. That would be a cool addition to my sets, since I don't have the resources for the team cards or the All Star cards.

This is beautiful but probably worth more than my house!
