I ordered a Beckett when I saw this last week and have been looking forward to it arriving. It came today and it didn’t disappoint. That was a really good article and those are some great photos of some of your FF variations and rarities. Some of the things you mentioned about the FF cards sounded very similar to things I’ve come across with the corrections Fleer made to the Randy Johnson Marlboro errors. Variations within variations, different levels of coverage, light to dark, print dots and print defects are features that both of the errors seem to have in common. The FF and the Marlboro card were also both at the bottom of their respective 132 card sheets. The Randy always seemed out of place, as he’s not with the other Expos. I have a question about the circle scribbles and whiteouts if I can send you a PM? Thanks!

"if I can send you a PM"...... Permission granted.
Thanks for the kind words. |

Can't wait to get my Beckett to read the article. Unfortunately USPS seems to like it also. It hit the first sorting facility several days ago and then magically disappeared. |

I've received a few emails about the Beckett article. A picture on page 44 incorrectly shows a white proof card with a Circle Scribble label. Here is a "closeup CS1" (with a nice diamond cut)

It only took 12 days but I got my Beckett today.
Great article Jon and congrats on being published in a major magazine, couldn't have happened to a better guy in the F Face community. |

Congrats! As another collector who has an affinity for a certain card, I can relate to your passion. Happy 30th to a classic card in the hobby! Hey, it's practically "vintage" now.
