Independence National Historic Park cards (Philadelphia)
We were in Philadelphia last weekend and got these cards at the main desk in the visitor center from a park ranger. They are supposed to be given to kids for completing various pages in a workbook by visiting the various sites in the Independence Park section of Philadelphia.

Would be interested in finding the ones we do not have

complete checklist (?)
we have the cards marked in front with an *
the number in (x) is the number on the card back, not how many we have. it appears the number represents which set it is in, as opposed to numbering in the traditional sence.

*Trading Card Checklist card

SET 1
*Bald Eagle (1)
*Declaration of Independence (1)

SET 2

*Phillis Wheatley (2)
*Independence Hall (2)

SET 4

NOTE: a lot of the ones we saw had corner and edge wear. they were stored lose in a big box so it looks like they got tossed around quite a bit

Never seen those, must be fairly new. I found a bunch of similar cards in Washington DC a few months back, but they were a little larger than standard trading card size.
