1981 WSC Scanlens - Quick Question - Kindly Chime In

[arash]

Is the following true?

"The Australian edition set that only has 3 checklists back to back and all player cards have a part picture of the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

The New Zealand/England version has different part of picture on back of the corresponding Australian card number plus has 6 checklists (blank backs) plus about 12 of the player cards have blank backs."

The info I have is:

Checklist
Checklist - Australia
Checklist - Australia
Checklist - India
Checklist - New Zealand
Checklist - England
Checklist - West Indies

There's this too : http://www.nazimcricket.com/cigs2.php?p_link2=scan81

Maybe Naz can confirm the card backs?

I can confirm there are two separate sets as described here (I have each). I cannot say with 100% certainty which is which edition, but I do recall hearing elsewhere something along the same lines as you have posted.
