Night Owl Cards

I have a handful of different collection-related thoughts and scans sitting around that need to be posted before they go bad. You might dismiss this as warmed-over leftovers. But I happen to love leftovers, so this kind of housekeeping post appeals to me a great deal. Here are some random items that separately couldn't make up their own blog post. A little over a week ago, I mentioned receiving a Topps Ron Cey Collecting Box. Through some research I discovered that they were first advertised on Topps' 1981 wrappers.
