The named set has 50 cards in it of which I have the first 45, the last 5 were short prints and I don't have. My problem is that I have a second set that I have the first 45 cards of but there is no fronts on any of the cards just the backs. Are these cards just mistakes, errors or just plain junk? Do they belong in the Data Base or not? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

Read the second line on the card back, "For a free set of 10 non-picture...game cards". So the non-picture cards were a mail-in offer to get 10 entry "forms". So they aren't a printing error, but a Mail-In set.

Thank You Sir. I have the first 45 cards in both the pictured front set and the blank front set, I was wondering do the blank front set belong in the Data Base?

Sounds like yes, they should be listed as a "mail-in" set.

Except the birthday cards you receive every year.

I created the set and copied the base set checklist; Non-Picture Game Cards. But after doing so I got to thinking. These cards have no fronts. And were intentionally made with no fronts. NO players. NO teams. If you have a card in hand all you have is a card number. Should the checklist have NO players and NO teams? I've messaged Admin about it.
