What year would they be ?? Just unpackaged product from factory or is this what they put them in to ship to main plant to package when they outsourced printing?

You can't really tell the year without looking inside the case.

For what it is worth, they typically are basically a single sheet from a single year, and just hoardes and hoardes of cards (a few thousand), giving you something like 50-80 cards per player on that sheet that comprises the cut card case.

At least that is my recollection.

I had some cut card cases back in the 80's. If I remember right they contained around 8,000 cards all from a certain sheet. I think you usually got around 60 - 70 of each player on the sheet. It seems like there was some way of telling what year and sheet the case was from but I can not remember for sure. The quality of the cards (at least the centering) tends to vary quite a bit.

I have gone through a few of these. Quality of the cards is often not that good, as the cards are loose in the case. Sometimes you get lucky with a run in the middle of a pile or row, but for the most part, it's not a good source for gradeable cards.
