Was it baiks in the jelly roll? That long ago there was no standard for how a pre cut was actually cut. Believe it or not Missouri Star had the standard for all pre cuts to be the same, in cuts and amounts per pre cut name. They were buying massive bulk orders, the manufactures complied.
I think thet were cut by whoever got rid of them. It was a Christmas print with gold metallic on regular quilting cotton.
