Until recently, I would have answered this question saying that the 1971 Topps Coins checklist would be one, but I would have been wrong. However, this checklist card appears to be the answer to the following question: "Which checklist appears in two non-consecutive series?".

The 71 Coin checklist appears on the 2nd and 4th series sheet. Any other checklist cards that appear in multiple non-consecutive series?

To answer your question Al, I have always felt that the 61, 63, 64, 66, 68-72 1st series checklists, as well as all 73s have one version.

I think I have differences for 61, 64, 66, 68, 69, and 70. What I thought I remembered for 73 was actually the 2nd CL

61— names and boxes at different heights ?
64— box 44 can have a line and box 14 a dot
66– Merritt can have a botched M and spacing difference of card # to bottom
68– CR location difference ?
69– McClains collar and USA on back with or without periods
70– 226 Peranoski-with or without . after P

Pursued this kind of stuff in my younger days. Can’t see well enough anymore so have to rely on you guys and threads like this one ��

For the '67 checklists (and other things), check out this old thread:

Al is correct on all of these.

The 1963 Topps 1st series checklist also has variations. The front can have a black line top border or not. The size of the box on the reverse with the card number "79" can be a square or rectangle. The copyright wording is is also lower/higher.

Hey Mike. Agree on 63. I have one version with a black line under the red box on front, one with yellow line and one with no line. Registration differences probably, but also box size shape differences on back.

I should have known it has been discussed before, I even responded in that thread but have absolutely no memory of it.

I need to recheck but think I have 2 versions of CL 2 from 73 ( likely just a PD). I think it involved the Bonds card

On the 63 CL 1 the box differences are subtle. I think the easiest way to spot the 2 is the location of the CR to the top of the box

1956 Variation
 

There are at least 5 variations of this card:

1. Blue background
2. White background
3. Blue background with overprint from the back of the card in the upper left
4. White background with overprint from the back of the card in the upper left
5. Blue background with white splotch above the “e” in Zuverink with overprint from the back.

There may be other permutations of these variations. The amount of the overprinting varies. All of the 5 varieties I’ve found are common.

A few years ago I was all psyched, because I found a new variation - a red streak on the 1972 Topps #300 Hank Aaron 'In Action' card that was a continuation of the one found on a small amount of #306 Boswell IA cards. I had parades planned, the bakery was making me a celebratory cake, etc., and then BOOM!!! I was told that this version was reported many years ago and could already be found on many 'official' variations lists. I still ate the cake. I mean, I'm not an animal.

Good to know I am not the only one!!
