09/22/03 Ralph Richards Joe,    I do have several sets laying around somewhere. When they were new they sold for $9.00 in certain local racing stores.  I may even have an uncut sheet or two. I did sell one uncut sheet on ebay for $22.00 last year. I think there were at least two different sets maybe three put out by the K & W Printers from Tuckahoe, NJ.  Thanks, Ralph Richards
10/09/03 Todd J K&W Race Cards were produced by Dave Keene and Belford Wilden.  Dave used
to crew on Bill Brennen's Hemi #5 and also had a local racing paper called Dad's Independent Racing Times, also known as D.I.R.T., during the mid to late 1980's.  As a kid,  I used to sneak up to the local Wawa waiting for the latest shipment and take them home and cut them up.  I had pictures of Wayne Weaver's victory lane shot in the Hemi #5, Chic Cossaboone's "Cheal Dirt and Fast Grass" 7A, and a host of other local racers hanging all over the walls and also a scrapbook.  When I started SJDR, I found Dave floating around the net and later, when I helped on the #5, I met Belford, who was still in the printing business, working on camping papers/advertisements.... I'm thinking there was 3-4 sets and also a URC set.  If you notice, I believe Chic and Jimmy were from the very first issue...  Johnny and Doug were from issue #2.  I thought these things were pretty damn neat and have them put away in the box somewheres...   Just recently, I found the old scrapbook with all of these clipping and quite a few articles from the AC Press on Jimmy Horton when he was sweeping the Superspeedways in the ARCA division.  I am also willing to bet, that these cards that are posted here never left Tuckahoe (until recently), if I am thinking of the right Jennifer...  The driver selection was a giveaway.  Joe, I will have to dig these out for you to take a look at........ Todd
03/07/05 Steven B Does anyone have any singles of these cards for sale? I am looking for 1991 #35, 1994 #11, & 1995 #13 of Jimmy Horton to complete my collection.   Please email at:  epchha@ftc-i.net
