1976 Carousel Discs (H-unc) Cubs

There were many MSA disks produced in the late 70s. Cubs disks are affordable, simple, and enjoyable to collect. Happy hunting!

Size of Cards

The discs measured 3- 3/8 inches in diameter

Basic Features

Carousel Snack Bar refers to a type of food counter typically found in malls, offering inexpensive snack foods and the disks were made by MSA. Each disc displays four stars on the front, and all are marked with a rubber stamp on the back that indicates the location. Employees performed this task at the counter to reduce costs. MSA, which stands for Michael Schechter & Associates, collaborated with the Players’ Union to produce these collection. Other 1976 MSA backs featured: Buckmans, Carousel, Crane Potato chips, Dairy Isle, Orbaker’s, Safelon, Sweet William, Towne Club, and Wiffle Ball, along with some blank backs.
