The Undogaho Magazine bromide card set, published by Toyokuni Sha, was printed in two varieties. Fronts were printed in either brown tint or green tint. Additionally, both blank back cards and cards with text on the back have been seen. No matter what player appears on the front, the text on the back is the same, and has nothing to do with the player pictured. It is merely general baseball information along with a blank scoreboard.
