They are very tough. I haven’t seen a legit eBay/COMC listing for one in quite a while

Yeah they are really hard to locate, I'm trying to get as many of the 62 as I can.

Shouldn't there be 132 (minus the manager cards) since they parallel the A* sheet, which is 132 cards?

No because just like the player/manager cards that were mixed up from the C-D sheets it was only one half of the A sheet that had the A*B* cards.

Pat, Im confused, are you saying that A*B* cards were printed on sheets with 50% A* cards? I cant see the photo clearly so forgive me if that is what you are showing here, this doesn't look like a bold 40th sheet which is what those cards were printed on.

Do you have a photo of an uncut sheet with A*B* cards?

Hi Dylan, are you saying that you think the layout for the bold 40th sheet and the A*B* sheet were different than this A sheet? These should be better images of the front and back.
All of the confirmed A*B* subjects are on the top half of the sheet.

No, the layout would be the same for a Bold 40th logo A* sheet.

The A*B* cards are all printed with bold 40th logo.

What I am trying to understand is if/why Topps would produce an A* sheet that is 50% A* and 50% A*B* cards. It seems to reason that the A*B* variation would affect all 132 cards on the sheet.

What this means is:
  1. We need to see a photo of an A*B* uncut sheet
  2. We need to confirm if the "other" 66 players can be found in the A*B* version

Are you referring to Daryl Boston's card or is there a different one per factory set? Boston is the only player who can be found regularly with A*B* and a non-bold 40th logo on back.

I sent a bunch to COMC years ago. Sold most for $5 each.

I have one left on COMC of Joe Carter, which no one seems to want to buy
