I find them by doing my own research, but also, I had a contact with Fleer who verified my information. Going to add it to the online magazine, but here are some e-mails I received from Fleer dated back to 2002.

Dear Collector

The Jackson and Larsen cards were not intended to be released. It is known that a handful of Jacksons went into the boxes but to the best of our knowledge none of the Larsens were packed out. I hope this information is of assistance to you and wish you the best of luck with your future collecting.

Also, regarding Larsen and Jackson, both are extremely shot. We tried to delete both from the set because the relatively low number of cards we yielded from scraps of their garments (scraps from 2000 Greats Yankee Clippings). Since my records show the cards as being removed from the run, these were cards that missed our facility's quality control. I have only been witness to a few Jacksons and Larsens (all on ebay). It seems Jackson is a little more available, but I would guess that less than 10 Larsens are in circulation.

Do you send to bgs just for the encapsulation with no grade?

Because im sure those cant grade well due to the black edges chipping pretty badly, a few from that set have gone through my hands, all defnitely not mint.

And is there a list of all the unreleased (but somehow snuck out)?
