"Lefty" Grove comes with or without this mark in the left border. It's a green line with a small red line above it. Most Grove's are found off-center with a thicker left border, but even those not cut properly usually don't have the mark. I don't know the sheet layout but would guess this is probably a mark from the sheet, by a single slot, for part of production. I have only noticed this on the normal cream stock, not the tougher glossy version of the issue (card on the right is the glossy).

Nice looking pack Al.
Very clean! |
The # 80 card cost more than the pack ;) It is on the back of the Grove. Can also be found on the backs of Tinker and Collins. Grove seems to have it more than the other two, but still quite rare. They do not come up very often. Not likely issued at retail, unless maybe a few by mistake. They can be found as unissued proofs or cancelled/cut. There is no Pepper Martin card in the set

Ever since I found Mr. Dingmans list, I have been a variation adding fool.
I recently picked up the following 1971 Topps Bob Johnson's. Two were somewhat expected (left and center) and one, the 50th Anniversary card, was not expected. Cheers Butch |
You may be buying some of them from Richard. He is selling a lot of his variants on eBay now. He sells as brightair
