Makes sense to me. I just added the white line as a result of the black line.

Thanks,

Thurman Munson Printing error
 

Found this 1971 Munson in a group of cards that I just got in. Has anyone else seen the black loop in the right border. The area is smooth to the touch and looks like stray ink in the printing process. Printing error?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

My Latest 71 and 75 Topps Variation Pickups
 

The following I have gathered since my last postings on the subject.

In order of appearance:

Beckert: Orange scratches below 'G' in Glenn autograph
Campisi: No red lipstick on nose. Not sure if this is the variation or the regular version.
Lolich: Black blob and blue blob next to team name.
Reed: Both have the red mark by his head and one has the red mark and scratches in the grass on the left side of the picture.
Stone: Green splotches on uniform.
Such: Line in 'e' in Pitcher
Walton: I show both here as it is the best example of the variation. This has the black mark on the billboard where it is circled. This one is in the Dingman's list and I believe this is what he referred to on his explanation. Again, happy to be wrong here if someone else can validate it.

And the very last one:

75 Topps Checklist #1. This is repeatable too. The 'd' in record next to Kaline is partially missing, same can be said for the Ryan line too. I have not seen this listed anywhere and, again, I believe a new variant noted within this set.

Feel free to differ.

I will post all my 71 checklists in a different post. Those things are pulling what is left of my hair out trying to gather the color differences.

Cheers,

Butch

Nice Butch, curious when you post a new find do you include all versions you know of? In some cases I know of other versions you did not mention, so not sure if you are aware.

If there is a interest I can report my known versions on a card that someone has reported on. John

If you go back and read this entire thread, there is a fair chance it has been posted. I’m not gonna rehash that information. I’m just posting the ones I pick up, when I find them.

I also have a database of what I have found previously. So, I just post the finds that are new to my collection. Hence the name of this thread.

Additionally, If you have a variation that is not listed previously or you just wish to post your collection of variations, please, by all means do so. If it is something we don’t have, we will commence to searching.

Cheers,

Butch

1948 Leaf #38 Kluszewski
 

This appears to be a one off as I have never seen another copy with black sleeves and cap or hat.

Have you tried putting that under a black light. That looks like marker ink??

+1, looks like marker unfortunately :(

As promised, my 71 checklists I recently picked up.

These have been pain points for me as the look of them on eBay and then in hand sometimes do not match. Not that they sent a different card, they just did not register well when they were scanned I guess.

Anyway, I believe I covered some holes in my collection with the following cards:

In order of appearance:

Cklst 2 - Orange-White Helmet 123 Right side on back #1 (looks red here but my red one is even red-er)
Cklst 2 - Orange-White Helmet 123 Right side on back #2 (was not sure with the first one, so I bought a second one)
Cklst 2 - Orange(maybe red)-White-Black Helmet 123 Centered on back.
Cklst 2 - Red-White Helmet 123 Right side #1
Cklst 2 - Red-White Helmet 123 Right side #2 (was not sure with the first one, so I bought a second one)
Cklst 2 - White connected,,,,,,or not.

A couple of these series 2 checklists looked like there was a filled white section over the top of the helmet as noted on the Baseball Variations Guide website. But, now in hand, probably not.

Cklst 3 - Red-White Helmet 1/8 inch gap top of checklist numbers

Cklst 5 - Orange-White-Black Helmet 1/32 inch gap (AL Rookie Pitchers) next to border
Cklst 5 - Red-White-Black Helmet 1/32 inch gap (AL Rookie Pitchers) next to border

Cklst 6 - Black Wavy Line Front of Helmet.

Some of these are smack on variations where others are certainly left to the individuals interpretation. All I can do is compare them against what I currently have and if they look close to orange than red, I am blessing them as orange.

Cheers,

B.T.
