So a while ago The Topps Vault posted several of these up for auction but I can't remember what the listing titles were for them nor what exactly what they were used for or what were the purpose of these. I picked up these four just because I found them looking really neat and just cool 😄 but not to crank up the prices on them later down the road. Does anyone have an idea what were they used for exactly?? or are they just mini proof cards or mini acetate proofs??? http://instagr.am/p/BXEXZi3AZoT |

If I'm not mistaken. These are the USA mini. That never got released. But the proofs were made , anyone else can validate this

The marketing director In the 80s had these made up because he wanted to starting selling subsets such as minis, different color borders, sepia, 'C' cards, etc. He was immediately kicked in his ball sack and subsequently fired because Topps knew that crap would destroy the brand.
Now there are new people in charge at Topps. Obviously.
Seriously though, I have no idea.

Obviously, Topps doesn't know what these little assholes are either.
