1991 Topps variations

[aredsfan]

I've got probably between 10,000 and 15,000 1991 Topps baseball cards now.

I've been snapping up every lot that looks like it has potential on ShopGoodwill.com.

I was down to needing only:
- 2 non-A*B* dark logo variations (120 Joe Carter and 270 Mark McGwire with the . missing before 1987 SLG 618)
- 7 non-dark logo variations (Morgan, Boyd w/black border present, Bush w/no print code, Trebelhorn w/A* print code, Whiten, Checklist 5 with #433 Palacios, and Drabek)
- all (62) of the A*B* dark logo variations.

I had won an auction for an 800-count box of 1991 Topps baseball, but I was having regret because it was going to be over $25 including shipping, and I thought I was going to be throwing away that money. Since I AM a baseball card collector (and a gambler, which goes without saying), I decided to go ahead and pay for the auction. I received the cards today aaaannnnnd.....

I pulled the Bush no print code and the Treblehorn A* print code. AMAZING!

Also, there were a TON of dark logo cards, but not the 120 Joe Carter. I forgot to check the McGwire. I also didn't check any of them for A*B* yet. Will do tonight.

KEEP THE FAITH!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the A*B* cards have errors/variations.

Haven't encountered enough copies to say but I would guess with 98% certainty that they do not.

McGwire could possibly be an exception as he can be found with 618 and .618 in the bold 40th, which the A*B* cards are part of. Still doubtful.

Acker is very likely a registration issue.
On one the black is printed fairly far up. You can see this on the top of the Topps logo.

Nice.

The AB cards are very tough.
