Sears numbering scheme question

[+else]

I have a reasonably good boxed Sears collection. I'm aware that there were two numbering schemes:

 

6-998XX (1st scheme: Sporting Goods department)

49-751XX (2nd scheme: Electronics department)

However, I have a couple of oddball boxes that don't fit in to either of these numbering schemes:

 

49-75601 Outer Space

49-75602 Blackjack

Anybody know what the story is with these? Were they some kind of mistake, or perhaps they got caught in the middle of the transition from the 1st to the 2nd (but before the 2nd scheme had been finalized)?

 

Unfortunately you can't just assume that the "6" was supposed to be a "1", because there are other titles that already have those numbers....

Both early games...maybe Sears changed the numbering system very early on?

Do you have Cannon man boxed?
