1990 Topps Dennis Lamp errant mark
I was opening some older packs and I pulled this Dennis Lamp
card from one of them. Dennis Lamp.jpg I did some research to see who was above him on the sheet but I found out he was the top left card on the B sheet and it looks like someone slipped with the marker when they were marking the line between the A and B sheets.

Nice find Pat. Any idea if it is recurring ?

Hi Al,
I only checked the few singles that are listed on ebay and none of them have it. The box I have that has the 90's topps in it is on the bottom of a bunch of other boxes but I'm going to dig it out and check mine even though I know there's a very slim chance I would have one even if it is recurring. |

I had five more Dennis Lamp cards in the box I checked. None of them
had this mark but one did have a similar mark in a different spot. Dennis Lamp 2.jpg Dennis Lamp 2 Crop.jpg |

I believe that's not a mark that was on the plate, but rather a drag mark. The presses have various guides to direct the sheet to the right spot after it's printed, and there are some tinsel like things that are used to dissipate static electricity. Being near the center of the full press sheet, this is probably from the sheet rubbing on one of the strips intended to guide it onto the outfeed pile while the black ink was fresh. That should happen in a few other spots on the top row as well. Maybe a couple across each side, and near the other corners.

Like most sets this one is filled with these but here are two more I found
interesting. A quick check didn't reveal any others but they do look like something that could be recurring. Randy Valarde with red stripes in the Yankee logo 1990 Topps Randy Valarde.jpg Andy Benes with two blue bands 1990 Topps Andy Benes.jpg |
