JCM 66c: 1957 Maruya Black and White Chain Menko Type 2 is similar to Type 1, but the backside is a lighter grey ink. There are around 27 cards identified so far, but they do not have unique backs.
JCM 139: 1962 Marukami Cartoon is a fun set, different from other JCMs from this period. It is a bit smaller, at 1 3/16" x 2 7/16", and there are 20 in the set.
JCM 135: 1959 Maruten Sequential Black and White Blue Pitching Back is a unique set with almost 100 cards in it. This series features a dozen players, with a sequence of around 10 cards that provide a "flip book" of sorts of an action shot. Cards are numbered on the front for what part of the sequence they are part of.
JCM 137: c.1960 Maruten Question Mark Back is a set of 40 cards. These have a very busy back, including the team name, a question mark, a menko number, etc. While the menko numbers are duplicated, they are unique to the front side at least.
