I never knew Mike McCormick was into vamping

A couple of his cards where it looks like he just drank some blood.
Position smears too.

Brent has /at least/ 4 variations. 3 don't look all that bad and 1 looks like a bad scab to the left side of his temple.

Gotta be one of a kind. U da man. ;)

A classic Topps fix by the way.

Do not think it is legit. Seller had it up for low price with no mention of the defect/oddity. Nothing shows up on blue light but whatever it is does not scape off and does not seem like marker or white out

Has to be legit.....that KC looks like so many team logos from previous bad Topps attempts. You gotta deal. HUGE WINK goes here.

That is a cool find though.

Cheers,

Butch

Until you posted this, I had always felt that there were five variations of this card, but your 3rd image is different from the five I have. In your 3rd image, the spot appears green in color and the small print spot at the top of the image, beneath the "E" in Padres, is not present as it is in the others.

My last three all have varying amounts of the red/white anomaly from the 2nd image scribbled in by someone at Topps.

IMO, the most common variety is the first one, the one where the print anomaly is all white.

Larry,

Thanks for your additional info on Strom.

So there are at least 6 (not 4 mentioned above). I'll add them to my library and be on the look out for them now.

Frankly the one (now three) variations look like gunshot wounds to me. Not a great way to describe it though.

Cheers,

Butch

Thank you Butch for posting your pickups...looks like we both have some more work to do to finish this "run". It wouldn't be surprising if someone posts yet another variation of this card.
