Sliding into the 71s next.

Compton- Blue line bottom of card
Grabarkewitz - Yellow dot next to head
Tolan - Black Stripe across card
McQueen - Not easy to see in the scan but also a lite black stripe across card. you can really see it show up comparing it to his card with a darker stripe and the base card with no stripe at all.

Not to be outdone, I bring you the psychedelic 72s for your views.

Moret - Yellow bleed into name box
Bonham - White streak next to jersey number
Sutton - White uniform. Sorta subjective if you ask me. Looks more like lack of ink than a white uniform. Only way to see the difference was to have both cards, side-by-side.
Ron Santo - Yellow streak from nose to shoulder
Ron Santo - Blue streak on cap bottom of 'C'
Ron Santo A.S. - Rainbow streak
Ron Santo A.S. - Slight rainbow streak. This one looks like they tried, and failed to cover it all up. It is easier to see in person.

And to end the streak for today, I bring you a couple of 75s

75 Rookie Pitchers - Blue donut over N in Konieczny (this one was in the Dingman list)

I have been searching somewhat off and on for the Twins team Black line on the left of the card. I found one in the mini version of this set, but Im not collecting that set. I did stumble across the two you see here that have a blue line on the left of the card.

Ok, well it is certainly repeatable. I picked up the second one only because it appeared a bit darker than the first one.

I have not seen a blue line card until just a couple of weeks ago nor have I even heard a mention of it. I believe this to be a new variant of this card. And I would certainly appreciate anyone else that may have come across this card to weigh in please.


Ok, that is it for now..... Stay tuned, I have some 71 checklist variations on the way along with others from that set as well.

Hi Butchie - Some nice finds here where I would add a few things.
- Grabarkewitz - Yellow dot next to head & Red dot version
- Moret - Yellow bleed into name box & Dot in yellow boarder above "R" in Rogelio (no bleed)
- Bonham - White streak next to jersey number - Only found on cards where green on bottom of C & S
- Ron Santo - Blue streak on cap bottom of 'C' & Blue streak on cap right of 'C'
75 Rookie Pitchers - Blue donut over N in Konieczny & 1/2 donut right of "s" in Astros (Konieczny )

Hey Butchie, nice pickups!

New 1986 Blue Streak?
 

I found this card today and I have never seen it before. Is this a new blue streak?

Nice find, Craig is on the top (or bottom) row of the F* sheet so unfortunately there aren't other possible cards connected to the flaw like the Clemens-Seaver-Puhl combo.

Another one

Not certain the white line Fregosi should be counted as a print variation - seam lines like this appear on many Topps sets without white borders (1970 and 1962 come immediately to mind) where blocks of rows are repeated on the same sheet. So, on every 1970 sheet containing a Fregosi there is a white line between his row and the row above. The reason it can be seen on some cards and not others is simply due to whether the card is cut off-center. It's actually more a miscut than a variation.
