91 Topps Variations

[4reals]

Hey Steve, thanks for popping in! As a side note, every factory set I have ever opened (approx. 20) was entirely made up of glow back (UV) cards.

Here is what he's referring to:

You could paste a bunch of them all over you and then go out trick or treating with some pal shining a big black light on you at the doors, just fluorescing for your trick

Awwwww...jeez. Now I have to break out my '91 Topps again and look for the Smoltz...which reminds me of the Ventura border variations.

I thought I was close to completing my master set!
Dagnabit!!!!!!!

[ALR-bishop]

Sean-- can you checklist your master set ?

[JoeDfan]

Somewhere around here, I have a list, but I would have to look.
My master set does NOT include the glow/no glow backs though.

I have the Drabek white border, Hoiles white border, Whiten hand over/hand not over, 2 Boyd versions, 3 different Ventura versions, the one (can't remember the name) with the "Maj League Totals" in different font on the back, and a bunch of others I can't remember right now. The only one I thought I was missing was the "flag over hand with the border" Boyd card.

I also have an uncut sheet with at least a Ventura border variation, and some other players (I think McGuire might be there too, but I can't remember).

I recently sold ALL of my complete sets except for my '91 Topps, and my '89 Fleer.

[ALR-bishop]

ok, thanks, was aware of the ones you mention

[JoeDfan]

I do not think I have any variations that you do not already know about.

Hey Joe. I never knew that about the factory sets and glow back relationship. Also I have a Drabek variation that is about halfway between the 2 border variations you indicated above.

There is also a Drabek left border variation that the whole card has a purple tint to it. There are so many variations with this set I threw in the towel several months ago. I have/had several unlisted variations. Not sure if I still have them or gave them away with a ton of other junk era stuff.

Does anyone have a copy of the Efrain Valdez birthdate error? There is a pic on tradingcarddb.com but I still have yet to see or hear of one confirmed.

Nope. I just have the text or no text versions.

Did you see the example in the link? That is the first I have ever seen. I've long thought this to be non-existent like the corrected 1988 Fleer Garth Iorg.

I am glad that for the most part, I don't collect print variations.
