Default 1952 Topps Mante, KSA

Anyone see this one? Spotted it last night, thought it looked shady... saw it sold today. In addition to normal red flags (KSA, low feedback, no similar items listed, etc) the black border at top seems wavy, and his hat looks funny to me.

Defitnly looks weird, maybe a cut-out from something or hand-made. Dont like it. The black border at the top and looks aged dirty looking.

Back is wrong for variation A. Chris I thought you would have spotted that.

For sake of clarity, what is the back difference between the A and B variations?

The "s" at the end of "DiMaggio's" aligns with a different letter in "Right" above. And the stitches go in different directions.
