sounds fascinating. Now I have to look for some with a registration issue so both show. Maybe some of the dark logo cards that aren't consistently dark are from problems getting one to print over the other? Steve B |

Sounds like Topps was experimenting with that sheet. Maybe the reason you see the cropping differences is because they didn't like the cropping, modified something on the sheet, and ran the scrap through the press again. This wouldn't be unusual, except that they usually don't let that sort of thing out the door with the newer cards. However, I remember reading about people reporting they found sheets of 1960s Topps cards used in the walls of their house as insulation as well as the printing plates. There used to be a fair amount of dumpster diving in the old days when these sorts of things would turn up.

The lady I bought the original one from stated she thought she had seen another but couldn't remember which box it was in. She has now found it and sold it to me. So there are now at least two.
These are the images she provided me (front and back), but you can still see slight cropping differences. I do agree that this may have been an early run to test image cropping prior to release and just ran both sides of the sheet for cost savings. I believe her husband must have set up at shows, so maybe some of the non common players have been sold and are in other people's private collections. It will be interesting to see if any more pop up over time.

I tried to get these graded by PSA. The rest of my order Popped, but these show "N9: NOT GRADED Factory Mis-Print, No Grade". This surprised me.
Does anyone know if these types of issues are graded by BGS or SGC?

Psa rarely grades proofs, which I would lean more to these being than a printing error for sure.
You might have better luck with Beckett.
