As mentioned above, every card in the set has a variation. Some, like Aguilera, Ready, Karkovice, Azocar, Guerrero are more obvious. Mike Greenwell and Kevin Miller have interesting variations in the stats extending out of the stat area. Lots of photo cropping variations (Alex Fernandez, Dave Hansen) and several that have different arrangements of stat/year groupings separated by horizontal lines.

The BB Card hobby was so 'hot" in 1991 that for all these companies multiple printing presses were used to produce cards. Needless to say, I'm convinced that helped "cause" these fascinating variations in these sets and IIRC -- there are some interesting Score variations circa 1991 or 1992.

And here I was all proud of myself for "finishing" my 1991 Fleer set and you guys have to go and buzzkill me.

:D

you should know - never tell a collector you are finished with a set!

For you 1991 Fleer Experts, we got a note about a variation in the Edgar Martinez from this set but I could not tell the difference as it appeared to be too subtle. If anyone could help me with this one, I'll add it to the COMC Data base.,

Rich

Doing my best David Rudd imitation here.

Maybe we did not have both versions in the COMC data base but these differences appeared to be so subtle I could not figure them out. Would love some help and I'll add them

Randy Ready
Oscar Azocar
Pedro Guerrero
Kevin Miller (or do you mean Keith Miller)
Alex Fernandez
Dave Hansen

We might not have scanned all possible variations in because we only deal with what we actually received but as an E & V guy, I love mysteries love these. Please feel free to either PM or EMail me or post in this thread

Rich :) :)

Rich,

You forgot to add a smiley face....

1991 Fleer
 

Here is what I have so far, followed by what I have heard/read I still need

What I have

17 McGwire...6 or 7 lines of text on back
125 Karkovice...1 or 2 lines of text on back
113 Romine...1 or 2 lines of text on back
117 Fernandez..red line above scoreboard on front or not
301 Ryan.. divider line on back in stats above 1980 or below it ( differences
in other lines as well)
388 Booker...1981 stats on back or missing
469 Devereaux..six runs in first line of text or runs is in 2nd line
507 Gonzalez..4 or 2 rows of lights on front ( unlike others which are true variations, this is cropping difference ( DP ?)
602 Aguilera...5 or 6 lines of text on back
610 Gagne...stat divider lines on back in different places

What I think I need ( I say both because I have no idea which version I have in my very valuable sealed boxed set ;)

105 Neahring...both 6 and 7 lines of text on back
327 Stevens... both 6 or 7 lines of text on back
662 Espinosa... both 1979/80 stats or not on back
666 Hawkins...both 1978 stats or not on back

If anyone has any on my need list they want to jettison let me know. And if any if anyone is aware of others not listed above let me know. It is an illness.

Mark was right, this is a struggle

Taken care of

Added a bunch -- keep those cards and letters coming. Love adding stuff like this to COMC database
