I’m sure this has already been discussed, but is it accepted that the Beastball lost wacky was based on the 1982 Topps Baseball pack?(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)
I always assumed 1985. Same basic red and yellow colors, but missing the win banner and yellow splash in the lower right corner. This piece always looked incomplete (there are no gags about gum or cards, in fact there is no lettering on the bottom of the card). Instead of using this piece, they wound up re-purposing the 1975 Beastball, in the 1985 set, with a new date and reworked logo at the top and gags at the bottom.
If you look at the version of this Wacky in the Chrome series, there's text on the bottom of the wrapper. I'm presuming this is the right version and the Flashback one is in error.
