Cards, which were generally sold in packs of 24 with a bubblegum stick, had torso-up shots of the players in their uniforms on the front and short bios and trivia teasers on the back answered on future cards. The negatives come in light brown sleeves with hand-written notations such as "Card #13, Bobby Smith, Det #23." Some of those that include the actual cards are Tom Matte, Bobby Joe Conrad, Roy Jefferson, Ernie McMillan, Gary Collins, Johnny Sample, Paul Flatley, Bruce Gossett, Pat Studstill, etc. Negs alone include Don Meredith, John Mackey, Ray Nitschke, Jerry Logan, etc. A curiosity is a 5" x 8" blowup of Steelers punter Frank Lambert in color from the neck up, b&w from neck down.
