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

It looks like a kid made a Traded card by making it a Pirates uniform with a black marker, Kluszewki didn’t become a Pirate for nearly ten years after the card was printed.

Agree, that is not from the factory like that.

Not my discovery, but this one is cool and if it has been posted here I don't remember it. The 1968 Topps #208 Willie Davis was originally printed with an A rather than a Q at the start of the trivia question on the back of the card which wouldn't be a big deal because there are hundreds if not thousands of uncorrected Topps error cards over the years, but what is amazing is that Topps went through the trouble of correcting this trivial error on later printings. The error card is definitely in lower quantities but isn't rare. There are forty 1968 Topps Willie Davis cards on Dean's Cards website, 33 are the correct version and 7 are the error version.

Didn't know about this one, odd it's obscure as this looks like a legit true 'variation' correcting an error, which usually are the ones a lot more people care about. Got to go get 1 of them now

Hadn't noticed this before but maybe everyone else knows. Looks like there are varying degrees of the 1955 date being blacked out on this card.

Here's another, currently up for auction on the B/S/T board:

1956 Team Cards
 
I can see on my six cards with left team name that some of this white peeking out is present on at least four of them, including the Cubs.
