Oddball Illinois / Illini Set - Does anyone know what these are?

[Bill77]

I have some from 1991. When I lived in Illinois, they were usually available at the local Taco Bell. They would have a few different cards every week just sitting on the counter for people to take. I remember seeing them for a few years before we moved to Wisconsin but have only found cards from the one year in my collection.

That makes a tons of sense - This collection seems to have 1 of some guys and 50+ of some others; I could totally see a kid just grabbing whatever they could while grabbing a Taco.

I would, in all seriousness, send at least one of each to COMC. Not all of them but that way you do have a wide reach of people who follow the site and would probably be very happy to add items to their collection that way.

Anything NOT on the site is worth sending in a copy of each of the 1990 and for the person who had them the 1991 cards
