NOTES:
 
   Given the catalog designation R423, these miniature strip cards of "Baseball Stars" were inserted in capsules to be dispensed in vending machines. Produced by the Oak Sales Co. the 5/8" x 7/8" cards were issued in 13 card perforated strips in 1950. The thin stock paper cards features a black & white player photo, are numbered 1-120, followed by the players name, and at the very bottom a baseball play which is used to play a game. The play captions include: Ball, Strike, Walk, Strike Out, Fly Out, Foul Out, Out, Sacrifice Fly, Safe Bunt, Single, Double, Triple, and Home Run.

 The back of the cards, most found printed in orange, are sometimes found in red, purple or green, and illustrate a baseball diamond with tiny figures at six infield positions. Years later cards with "Go R423" on the back were issued by Gypsy Oak Studios. These 2015 micro cards were made in the style of the 1950 R423 vending cards but without the payer's name.
