| Here are three cards from the COZI TV promo set (Manufacturer unknown, undated). It appears to be a 15-card set with 5 classic TV shows represented by 3 cards each (Charlie's Angels, Six Million Dollar Man, The Lone Ranger, Magnum P.I. and Marcus Welby, M.D.). Card fronts show photos of the cast and the backs feature a little trivia. Though the cards are undated, I believe that the set was made to be given out around the time COZI TV officially launched on January 1, 2013. None of the shows listed above are part of the current line-up on the network but they could have been among those that ran back then. |

| Here's what I think is a printer's test card for "The Silver Surfer All-Prism" set that Comic Images ended up doing in 1992. I had never seen it before sometime last year. It has the front and back of card 48 from the set plus a flashy company stamp on the back. It was apparently made to show the prism effect the company, Prismatic Illusions, could create on trading cards, that effect best judged in person rather than in a scan/photograph. I've seen other printer's test cards (e.g. glow-in-the dark cards Topps considered for its Ren & Stimpy set but ended up going with stickers instead) and they are hard-to-find when you know what you're looking for. I've never seen another one of these. It's possible it was the only prismatic test card sent to Comic Images for review. |

| The bookseller, Cemetery Dance, still has a stockpile of the cards which they occasionally offer for sale. I don't know if they have many left or not. |
