Hi,
I am doing a piece for SCD on Olympic related cards.
If you have the time and interest to answer a few questions about Olympic cards from these sets: 1991 Hoops, 1991 Skybox, 1991 Impel, 1983 M & M's Olympic Heroes and perhaps others of the like that you collect, please send me a message before November 21, 2021 and I will get back with you.
Thank you for your consideration.
Doug
Enjoy the hobby.

Don't forget the 1983 Hostess version of the Greatest Olympians set. There is also a version of Coca Cola that is rare too.
Looking to BUY n332 1889 SF Hess cards and high grade cards from 19th century especially. "Once you have wrestled everything else in life is easy" Dan Gable
Most important on the 1983 Topps greatest olympians is that there is a variation that was only available at 7-11 I believe.. logo is different upper left..
Olympic Rings logo..
They were 2 section rack packs as opposed to the reg. 3 section racks.
Was lucky to find a near full box.
Didn't one of the companies issue a plastic card that was a special/ chase insert?

That 83 was a fun set. I remember buying those from rack packs when they were new. Went back and bought the boxed M&M set and the Hostess panels. Can't find the coke panel cards though.
Lmk if you need this version of Jesse
@mrmopar many years ago I found 8 of the 12 panels have never seen one since

Thanks for the info and pics. By chance can you please retake the photo of the four 1983 Owens cards and have them against a black or dark blue background and not have any glare in the pic? Thanks.
If you want an encyclopedia on track and field and olympic cards, go over this website from A-Z, a track and field and olympic card database of over 600 different sets spanning decades.

How’s this pic

Very cool. Surprised how scarce they seem to be, as Coke was a very popular product and so are the Olympics. I would definitely keep the panels and not try to cut them down, seeing how they were printed on the boxes.
Nice pics. Thanks again.
