One quirk in 1980 though, I believe the checklists you sent away for in 1980 were part of a sheet and you had to cut them yourself.

The team cards you received from those mail orders were thinner and on lighter stock than the team cards that were in packs.night owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11673973790245316059noreply@blogger.com
