Wondering why some of the Topps Football team checklists from the 70's were listed as insert sets. I remember being able to mail in and get them but I thought they were the same cards that you could pull from packs. Is there a difference that I do not know about, as they seem to be the exact same cards included in the base sets. Jeff

Yes, there is a difference. They came as an uncut sheet. ------------------------------- *Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.*

Also the mail-in uncut sheet cards tended to be thinner card stock more like paper, or I guess like some of today's cards.
