1955 T Wehmeier
 

I was pleasantly surprised to see the "asterisk Life" version of the '55T Wehmeier in my set. I wish it had better centering, but certainly not unusual for that set. I don't look for this variation since I only recently became aware of it, but a quick check of recent auction results doesn't show it coming up very often. For those of you who follow variations closer than me, how tough is this one?

Thomas-- the insignia on his uniform seems to drop more below the bottom border on one version

No *Life Wehmeiers out of the 50 currently for sale on COMC.

I have a Wills buyback with the circle. I didn't recall picking it up, but came across it the other day.

This is VERY rare, but not impossible. It also is known due to the truncated diamond in the logo on the front and no dot over the i in his name. Good catch!

The logo issue is similar to the also tough Robinson. Since most sellers ( COMC and Dean's aside) don't often give back scans I found Herm easier to locate by looking for the truncated logo. But both are scarce, and maybe true variations

I have scanned all versions of this. In the obverse photo, the NO copyright versions are on the right. In the reverse photo, the slap present versions are on the right. I have seen at least five of these for sale on eBay at some point. A few have now started going for lower prices, perhaps since more are there.

Thanks for posting them Thomas

It looks to me like the second one with the blue stripe was printed slightly out of register with the black border line, that’s why it appear to have cropping differences.

Good point, Cliff
