Not only did I participate in discussions about variants on Cardinals cards, I went even further into transgression and occasionally shared a new one. I hope that I may some day be forgiven, if not in my time on Earth, then in the next life, but forgiveness is not needed for me to take ownership and admit to the shameful sin I have committed. It will never, ever happen again, maybe. Shane, definitely don’t look at post #2,397.

ROFL.....big time. ROFL.

Honorable man that Greg for owning up to his past transgressions. That is a heartfelt apology too.

And now I gotta go find another 72 variation.

:D

Greg is just applying lessons learned from ErikV's pre war thread

Applying lessons learned, since there is no honor to be found in my actions that have contributed to the suffering of a fellow board member's collection. My apology is heartfelt though, and I hope will be taken into consideration at my sentencing. While I have brought shame and disgrace to the variations community, it has been a pleasure, gentlemen :o

Ohhh, it was not lost on me. An excellent example for sure.

Thank goodness, for I may need forgiveness very quick here! Shane, look away man :(

There's a lot of sub variants of the Gibson, one more common one that really only has a white slash through the "I" in "MINOR" and then there's what I think is a tougher one where most of the white streaking is focused over the cartoon's text.

I just picked up these two.

Shane, the new guy started it. I am just providing these for historical reference...cough.

I will have to go to my chamber and think this one over. When I come back I will have my decision.

(I've seen too much Judge Wopner as a kid!)

I have to say, Greg..... That cracked me up!

In review of this case....

I see that I need to get caught up on finding....

1959 Topps Alex Grammas (light transitional blob)

1953 Topps Wilmer Mizell ("runs" partially missing)

1972 Topps Bob Gibson (missing ink on back; multiple versions)

I really shouldn't say this as you're considering sentencing, but the Gibson is one of those variants that has tons of different versions of it. Whatever exactly happened here, the white slashing comes in tons of different patterns, and you could probably get a couple dozen different versions of it. :)
