I ordered it with my DCBS order a couple of months ago. It was in Previews.

One thing they should have done is give them square corners. I don't think they did rounded corners on trading cards way back when, that a thing from the 1990s & forward.

Is the cardstock like it would have been back in the day, or is it the new shiny coated stock they use now?

Old Style, dull flat card stock. The funny thing is the copyright on the bottom edge of the cards say "1951 Marvel comics". Found that odd.

It's not the original but I thought It was cool none the less. I've wanted an original since I was around six years old so this is a nice substitute, 1990's copy, plastic not metal. I'm actually watching a real one on eBay right now. I might get lucky!!!!!

also a Christmas time purchase ( the rack, not the book ). I was on eBay looking for spinner racks when I chanced upon this. The placards on the front are removable and interchangeable. The guy who sold it to me was able to make custom ones for me.
