Supersisters: Original Roster

The Supersisters card set was produced and distributed in 1979, with 72 women returning a letter allowing the use of their name and likenesses in the unique product. Below is an uncut sheet of the entire set, followed by the roster. To match the card with the Supersister, start at the fourth card in, from the left -- that's No. 1, skier, Suzy Chafee. Then go down for cards 2-9. Card No. 10 is at the top of the third column, Card No. 19 is at the top of the second column, and so on.
