The Struggle Is Real - 1991 Fleer

[darkhorse9]

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

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.,

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

105 Tim Naehring

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

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

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

Edgar's card can be found with the text printed at a tilt or correctly, in a straight, horizontal way. See COMC Item: 1648267 for an example of the diagonal text.

Randy Ready - extra stats on back (can't recall what the additional year is but should be the first line)
Oscar Azocar - drawing a blank, but I think it is another added stat line variation
Pedro Guerrero - can be found with a $ in front of his SB totals
Kevin Miller (or do you mean Keith Miller) - yes, my mistake!
Alex Fernandez - coca-cola sign is partially visible on one version, cut off on another
Dave Hansen - two different photo croppings. All COMC copies are just one version.

105 Tim Naehring - added line of text stating "player of the year..."

Martinez is now added
Guerrero is now added
Ready was already added

As you said no Hansen and I could find a Naehring

Could not see the coke sign on Fernandez

Could not see anything on Azocar or Miller

Keep em coming

Here are my 2 Fernandez

[Rich Klein]

Thanks Al -- only a few Fernandez in the COMC Data Base and none of them have the coke sign
