The 1966 Topps #73 Jerry Zimmerman can be found with a "green streak" and breaks in the border in the lower left corner. I have seen at least four different versions with varying degrees of the size of the green streak and the border breaks. John Tsitouris was to the left of it on the printing sheet and can be found with a border break.

Another Edwards with a red mark, and another Stinnet with more whites stuff. And Pepper with a green mark over auto

Found these two copies of this 75 Ed Sprague card with the side red border areas sloped instead of level ...The Lou Piniella and Wilbur Wood cards are on either side, but did not see any copies of either that match the slope seen on the Sprague card.

Good eye! I bought the Piniella a few years ago on eBay for a ridiculously high price, but I didn't know what to make of it. I never thought of checking who was next to it on the printing sheet. There should be a 1975 Topps Fergie Jenkins with this flaw at least on the right side. I found the Wood on COMC tonight.

Cliff, I did see that Wood on COMC, but the slope did not seem be as steep as on the Sprague card. The Piniella is an interesting card as it appears to have some extra red ink on face....could this be the cause of the red slopes along these borders?

Recurring/limited blue print line on front of this 70 Qualls card.....Sean will be happy that he has both.

1970 through 1981 Topps were notorious for being plagued with over inking, I would imagine that's what caused the sloping on those 1975 cards.

Cliff-- you should send all those back to Topps and ask for your money back

I recently noticed this recurring "factory" notation on the left edge of the 63Freehan card....it is even visible on the more centered copy. Any ideas on what the "CP" stands for?
