Thank for the info. I did email Mike through Ebay and he gave me some good info on them. He said that he has owned 3 sets in 25 years and has only seen one other set sell in an auction about 10 or 15 years ago. He also said that he didn't even know what to call the set until he found a membership card and letter.

As I mentioned in the parallel thread on CU, I've previously declined the opportunity to list these in the catalog data base.
Despite the numbers, they stray too far afield from the concept of player cards/collectibles. They have no names, no stats, bios, etc. They are really just big composite pictures on cheap stock.

"They have no names, no stats, bios, etc. They are really just big composite pictures on cheap stock."
So, in other words, strip cards...individually numbered and capable of being cut up into separate cards. FWIW, the boxers will go into my next edition of the boxing catalog.

I'm pretty sure the same type of cards/photos was sold in the most recent Hunt's auction (the internet version).

I would be interested in a link or info as to how they did. Thanks.

I think an argument could be made they are order or sales forms....

I picked up one of the sheets, the one with the boxers. They aren't order forms or anything else than what they appear to be. Which are strip cards. They are just like W512, W513, W560, W565, W590 or any other sheet-based strips.
