Given the catalog designation R423,
these miniature strip cards of "Baseball
Stars" were
inserted in capsules to be dispensed in
vending machines. Produced by the Oak
Sales Co. the 5/8" x 7/8" cards were
issued in 13 card perforated strips in
1950. The thin stock paper cards
features a black & white player photo,
are numbered 1-120, followed by the
players name, and at the very bottom a
baseball play which is used to play a game.
The play captions include:
Ball, Strike, Walk, Strike Out, Fly
Out, Foul Out, Out, Sacrifice Fly, Safe
Bunt, Single, Double, Triple, and Home Run.
The back of the cards, most found printed in orange, are sometimes found in
red, purple or green, and illustrate a baseball
diamond with tiny figures at six
infield positions. Years later cards
with "Go R423" on the back were issued
by Gypsy Oak Studios. These 2015 micro
cards were made in the style of the
1950 R423 vending cards but without the
payer's name.
