Anyone have any of these looking to compile the checklist they were issued in the Wichita Eagle-Beacon newspaper in 3 card strips in 1983 and again in 1984. If you have any let me know even it is just 1.

Have you tried contacting the newspaper about it??

Yes they weren't that helpful only pointed me to the archives of articles. Really need someone in the area to see if the library has archive copies on microfilm to really see the cards. Will paypal someone if they can put the time into that.

Hello,
I lived in Wichita and collected them when they came out.

An interesting fact is the picture of the two you have in your original post was taken by me.

I do not know all of them, and I am actually looking for one that features George Brett.

Here are the ones I have (minus the ones in the picture)
Keith Hernandez, Kent Hrbek, Keith Moreland 9/10/84

Carney Lansford, Roy Smalley, Steve Balboni 9/24/84

Tony Gwynn, Phil Niekro, Bob Welch 8/13/84

Tony Armas, Darryl Motley, Rick Leach 8/6/84

Tyrone Jackson, Calvin Thompson, Gene Smithson 11/5/84

Lee Cornwell, Rene Bumgarner, Darnell Valentine 10/29/84

Bob Stanley, Dennis Eckersley, Kirk Gibson 9/3/84

Robin Yount, Dwight Evans, Tommy John 7/16/84

Ryne Sandberg, Bruce Sutter, Jody Davis 7/9/84

Valerie Brisco-Hooks, Carl Lewis, Mary Lou Retton 8/20/84

Gary Carter, Jerry Koosman, Juan Samuel 8/27/84

Calvin Peete, Sergio Lopez-Chavero, Art Still 10/15/84

Ron Robinson, Jack Clark, Tim Raines 7/2/84

The Trout, Mattingly, Morgan one pictured above is from 10/8/84

Hope this helps

I've got an Ozzie Smith and I believe it has Jim Palmer on the back but it was already cut when I received it.
