I found a stack of these at an antique store....I remember being a kid in 87/88/89 when Topps used the card photos as actual school folders. These appear to be the same size as a folder but they are single sheets. Some are slightly larger than others and you can still see the print lines on the left edge (perhaps where they were meant to me cut or aligned).

Here's who I grabbed in hopes that someone might like them as a unique piece.

1988 Topps
Rickey Henderson 1 poster @ (8 3/16 x 11)......1 poster @ (9 9/16 x 11 7/16)
Mark McGwire 1 poster @ 8 3/16 x 11
Barry Bonds 1 poster @ (8 3/16 x 11)......1 poster @ (9 9/16 x 11 7/16) TRADED
Roger Clemens 1 poster @ 8 3/16 x 11
Mike Schmidt 1 poster @ (8 3/16 x 11)......1 poster @ (9 9/16 x 11 7/16)
Ozzie Smith 1 poster @ 8 3/16 x 11
Jose Canseco 1 poster @ (9 9/16 x 11 7/16)
Kirby Puckett 1 poster @ 8 3/16 x 11

1989 Topps
Kirby Puckett 1 poster @ (9 9/16 x 11 11/16)----yes, slightly larger than the ones above

If interested in trading...I'll take anything you think is fair on my wantlist. Also, if you know anything about these, please feel free to share with us what these cardstock posters are or what possibly was their purpose.

Added the pictures...you can see that some are slightly bigger than the others. Again, anyone know what these were used for?

Hi -

I would be interested in the McGwire, Clemens, and Schmidt. Check out my tradelist and let me know what you can use in return. Thanks!

2013 Pinnacle Clear Vision Hitting Single #63 Chipper Jones (ATL) ($4)
2013 Pinnacle Essence of the Game #4 Chipper Jones (ATL) ($5)
2014 Donruss Team MVPs #11 Chipper Jones (ATL) ($5)
2019 Topps Big League Wall Climbers #WC-2 Ronald Acuna Jr (ATL) ($6)

Scobes, I have some interest in these but don't necessarily have to have them. I could just use some base commons for my sets too if you have any that hit those lists. Don't need $20 in trade bait for these but you tell me what's comfortable.

Hi -

Sure, can you send over your wantlist? I'll see if I have anything you need, if not, these Braves would work. LMK. Thanks!
