The set has 76 different center panels with the different end panels there is 132 different cards. All have similar cards in the T205 set except Joe Wood and Walt Blair. There are 2 cards that have variations, the 2 cards that depict Devlin/Mathewson as there end panels. One set with Devlin as a Giant and one set with Devlin as a Rustler.
