Up for sale is a rare vintage Jeff Burroughs MSA Blank Back Baseball Card Disc of this Texas Rangers star outfielder. It is one of 70 discs in the extremely difficult to find "blank back" and "unbranded" test promotional set.  It is from a set break.


The disc is in acceptable condition, which is judged to be fair in this instance. Please read the description very carefully. There are surface scratches, stains/soiling, miscellaneous dots/marks, corner/perimeter wear,  and discoloration/yellowing due to age. Please see photos for more information.


Following its test issue of 1975, Michael Schechter Associates ran out its baseball player disc issues on a large scale in 1976. The unnumbered set contains 70 "blank back" baseball card discs. Most sets issued by MSA were sold with specific sponsor advertising on back, they were also made available with blank backs. This was done as a "test" before branding the discs for various companies as promotional items. The disc for sale is one such disc.


The discs are 3-3/8" diameter with a black-and-white player portrait photo in the center of the baseball design. A line of stars is above, while the left and right panels feature one of several bright colors. Produced by MSA under license from the Major League Players Association, the player photos have had uniform and cap logos removed.
