Not sure if this is recurring, but I dub this the Hawaiian Islands variation.

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet. The search function for this site is really awful. Anyway all three of my 1966 Koufax cards have the same print defect in the lower left corner, but I'm only seeing a couple in google image searches with this same defect.

I also noticed this circle of missing black ink on the 1968 Billingham...two of mine have this and I noticed one sold by GM cards just recently with the same defect.

Looks pretty scarce Dan

Anybody know the back story of the snake skin back 1967 Topps owens?
 

Why is this the only snakeskin in the set?

I've seen other cards from 1967 Topps like that, but with only a small part speckled. So I don't think there's anything special about Jim Owens; it's just an extreme example. Looks kinda cool.

Recurring red line on top.

1965 Maz
 

Doesn't that mark at the top of Maz usually mean that the card is at the top of a slit? Maz is in column 3 of the row headed by Morgan (16), so if true, this suggests that the Morgan row is at the top of slit B.

That would make the Morgan row, which includes Maz, as one of the four rows in Series 1 that was printed 3x (the other six rows were printed 2x), so Morgan & Maz should be some of the DP cards.

The Morgan row has cards 16, 23, 95, 45, 84, 36, 87, 48, 108, 27, 59.

1965 series 1
 

These other images also suggest that the Morgan row is at the top of slit B.
