I am looking for my 70 Joe Coleman and haven’t found it yet but I found some missing 76 Topps cards while searching for it, including this Blue Dots Dave Lopes Record Breaker that I will post as soon as my home computer comes back on.

I found the 1970 Topps Joe Coleman, it clearly has a word printed in the blue sky that starts with ‘DE’, goes into Coleman’s face and then ends to the right in the sky. I will post a scan as soon as my computer comes back into service.

You did me a favor asking for a scan of the 70 Topps Coleman, I found this missing card looking for the Coleman.

Here is the 70 Topps Joe Coleman with writing in the sky, I'm guessing it is 'DETROIT', maybe from the Tigers team card. The only reason I knew about this card was that someone listed a PSA 8(?) 1970 Topps Joe Coleman on eBay and described it as a print error and wanted something like $50 for it. I looked for another one cheaper and found this one right away, but it must be rare because I looked through a few hundred 70 Topps Coleman cards on the web very recently and couldn't find another one.

Neat card Cliff

I think I figured out where the ‘DETROIT’ came from on the 1970 Topps Joe Coleman card, it was still on the printing plate from a 1969-70 Topps Basketball Detroit Pistons card. If someone could post a scan of a 1969-70 Topps Basketball Detroit Pistons card I would appreciate it because my Xfinity box is fried and I can’t get on my home computer.

Nice card Cliff...in hand does it appear the lettering in the sky is caused by a wet-sheet transfer, or something else?

I am very certain that it was printed on the card and is residual from a 1969-70 Topps Basketball Detroit Pistons card that was still on the printing plate, similar to the 1967 Topps Baseball 2nd Series cards that can be found with those fold out comic book images on the front. Unfortunately my home computer is down and I can’t show a scan of a 1969-70 Topps Basketball Detroit Pistons card, I’m just glad I was able to get it to work last night and post the scan of the Coleman card.
