| This
is an attempt to catalog all the
different varieties and variations of Rook Card Boxes. If you have
a set you would like to add that is not listed, I would be happy to add
it to the record I am always trying to make the production dates increasingly accurate. As more data from sets, ads and catalogs is obtained - the more sure the dates become. A rule book or a set of cards originally from another box will skew the record. |
