"Half" cards

 So, I have a hard time listing these "cards" because they are just the backs and the stickers are long gone from the other side.


Don't get me wrong, I love them and would keep them if any were Jays, but I won't bother listing them in my traders. I'll instead send them off in trades as extras or packaging. I wouldn't waste them by throwing them out as they do have use, but I wouldn't really consider them a full card for trade either since they are not complete.

Would you consider them the same as any other card? Are they "something less" because the stickers are missing? Happy to hear others thoughts or opinions...maybe I am in the minority!

  1. The "Super Star Backs" are listed on tcdb as an insert set to the 1988 OPC Stickers set (https://www.tcdb.com/Inserts.cfm/sid/8702/1988-O-Pee-Chee-Stickers---Super-Star-Backs).

  2. Agreed. But still collecting them as a separate thing. I’d you remember can you put aside a mattingly for me? Still need 3 to complete the set.
