To the all knowing CU messageboard members, I need help identifying a few cards.

I just bought a large collection that had several items that I had never seen before. I was able to identify most using my trusty 2007 SCD Standard Catalog. There are a few that I can't identify.
Card #1 - I do not have a Standard book for football, so I am clueless as to what this pop out type card is.
Card #2 - I just found it in the Standard after I had scanned the cards. It is a 1969 Oakland A's Anderson. It books for a whopping $3.50.
Card #3 - It has his name in red letters on the back and at the top. It looks like it is some type of game you play with the card on the back.
Card #4 - It is definitely a reprint. I have a lot of 16 different cards, which maybe a complete set. It looks like the old Four-On-One Exhibits. However, these are not in the Standard catalog, even under reprints.
Card #5 - I have about 20 of these and they are Baltimore Orioles and it looks like I have the complete set. I looked under the B section for Baltimore and under the O section for Orioles. I also looked under vintage and under modern and I can't find out what these are.
Card #6 and #7 - I know what the card on the left is. It is a 1977 Baseball's Great Hall of Fame Exhibits. These are similar to the 1948 version. My question is about the card on the right. It has a different look about it. It is thicker than the 1977, and it obviously has a different color to it. The card on the left is part of a complete set that I have and they match the description of the 1977 exactly. However, I can't find anything on the card on the right. Is is some sort of unauthorized reprint?
Thanks.
