Just my opinion but I'm thinking 'snow', it's also in his name.

It looks diagonal like a logo...also that he was only on the Astrosseems strange, why did the airbrush on the cap to all black? The jersey looks like a H or A(Amarillo) and 64 on Colts? Perhaps old photo for '69

In any case, if you see any with less, pls share here...seems strange for the others in the set that year (popovich and perronoski) that Topps didn't black out the master...maybe they did at some point in printing, vs extra black at the end/final print?

There was a bizarre lawsuit involving the Astros logo in 1968 and 1969, that is why everything is airbrushed and there is no mention of the name Astros on any Topps or Fleer cards those two years. ETA, apparently the lawsuit was settled or thrown out by the time the 1969 Topps 4th Series came out and Jim Wynn and Dan Coombs have the Astros logo visible on their uniforms.

The black ink around his position is also very frequently recurring.

Kind of looks like a recurring wet sheet transfer.

It sure looks like that to me, but not sure what transfer it so consistently only to Nelson’s card. I would think the card being stacked on top of Nelson would be the back side of a Nelson card from another sheet. Nelson’s back doesn’t seem to have issues with overinking that would make it more likely to leave a transfer when stacking fresh sheets.

The 68 and 69 Topps sets were also impacted by stalled negotioations for a new licensing agreement between Topps and The Player's Association, now headed by Marvin Miller. Many old, capless, minor league, and obscurred cap shots in those sets. When the agreement was finally reached newer and better pictures showed up in the later 1969 series

Blue curley shape
Big blue dot
2 very small blue dots
Proper full white border (not pictured)

There may be more.

Stop it would ya?!?!

You must be on a mission to bring to light every Cardinals print variation that I don't have in order to put a damper on my day!

I hate you! (in a light-hearted, hobby sort of way!) :D
