Looking To Sell Your Star Cards?

Star produced two Franz bread issues with a Drexler card in each set from 1985 to 1986. Many collectors sometimes confuse the two due to the similar photo. The 1985-86 card is less valuable and clearly says ‘1986 Collector’s Issue’ on the top of the card. I often see the two mislabeled on eBay.
