In 1963 Fleer had cherry flavored cookies in the their packs instead of gum, because of Topps suing them. ------------------------------- Dave

I remember the gum being placed touching the back of the cards, in the pack. Or was that just Topps that did that? You can see the mold on the gum, that card is dead. It's slowly going to rot away. ------------------------------- What is that behind you!?! Oh, It's me! Looking at the cards you have, That I want. :)

The Graig "don't call me Craig" Nettles 1981 Fleer set had gum for sure. Check out the video https://www.tradingcarddb.com/Videos.cfm/sid/84/1981-Fleer

Not sure about Donruss, didn't collect that year's set.
