Show us a “ only one that’s known of” card

A different cropping of the image is a different design of the card. That it is small does not make it meaningless or non-existent.

The discs were clearly issued 2 separate years- that is not in question. So the question is how to differentiate the players that were in both sets and used the same/very similar images. I didn't carefully compare all of them. I did so with the Clemente. There is a cropping difference that makes it easy to differentiate the 1967 disc from the 1968 disc.

Not sure where you are going with the idea of regular Topps cards from a single year having potentially different cropping variations nor how that is relevant to the discussion about the discs?

...Read the post I quoted above the reply and it will all start to make sense what is being said and by who...

Howard, I posted about the differences awhile back on my blog, you're even name-checked! https://www.thetoppsarchives.com/202...nt-eleven.html

Thanks for sharing it!

I'm begging the OP, for the love of God, please edit the title of your thread. That floating space and the bad grammar is breaking my frickin' brain!!

Change:
Show us a “ only one know of” card

To:
Show us an “only one that's known of” card
(Which I'm quite certain also suffers grammatically, but is infinitely better.)

English grammar is a weak point for me… my wife is an English teacher. She cringes with my writing !

Scott, I had to go look. No Rawlings Staff Advisory box at bottom. I tried to grade but they said no. Might be a BW copy.
