I don't know anything about trading cards. I imagine there is dates on the back, but I am not going to open it to find out. It's pretty neat, the picture changes when you move it from a face view to a full body batting view. The card say's on the front "kellogg's Corn Flakes Basball Great's". Maybe you can e-mail Kellogg's and ask them when they put these card's out. TY for looking!
