Would have been cheaper and easier for the CU OP to just check ebay for that commonly found variation card:

That is kind of what I was thinking......I have used his list for 6+ years and it has been an incredible resource.

So are we switching the effort to see if anything in our sections is not on Richards list, and then providing him that shorter list for possible incorporation into his ?

Can't say with 100% certainty that each variation from this thread is on his site, but over the years Richard has done an impeccable job aligning his site with what he has seen posted on this board. Obviously he does not keep up with the later 1970s cards, so any post 1975 cards in this thread won't be included. However, the vast majority of cards mentioned in this thread are pre 1975 so they will likely appear on his list. Over the years, I have posted some one off print variations in the thread and they appear on his list(in red as he does not have one yet).

For me the variations can be a fun addition in collecting. For the most
part I don't collect them but you can always pull out a box and see what
you can find.

This morning I grabbed a random box and a few cards in I found this
88 Topps Randy St. Claire variation. The letters extend down into his
cap (bottom right card). I haven't checked to see if it's a listed or even a
recurring variation.

Not a print defect, IMO, just a registration issue with the black plate. You can see the black line at the bottom is shifted down as well so there's a gap between it and the green border.

Yeah I see what you mean John. How about this one.

Yellow Fisheye in the bottom left corner? If it's a recurring print defect, it's worth listing. Most fisheyes are just one-off printing defects. This thread is more about recurring print defects seen on multiples of the same card.

I know these should be in the post 80's section but I saw there were
already quite a few post 80's cards posted in this thread.

Variations lists
 

Folks,
Glad that my lists of variations has been helpful to some. Just a reminder though, although I started out trying to be as comprehensive as possible with every minor difference, I have been tightening my standards a bit in the last couple years to not include the most minor print errors, registration issues, random dots, etc. So I would expect that not every single item that has appeared in this thread will be in my lists, but nearly all, and certainly anything "substantial" (and the definition of that word I will leave up to each and every one of you.
Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread and kept it exciting; there are still "treasures" out there, just waiting for the right pair of eyes.
Happy hunting!
