1974 topps 385 don gullett
 

Not sure is this has been noticed before or not, but found this Gullett card with a limited recurring border break along the bottom team banner.

I picked up this interesting "freak" at a flea market today:

Brinkmanship
 

Good one Howie, since the Brinkman is already has a recognized 1968 yellow variation... even though the variation is in all cases a Milton Bradley card. Is the yellow a real variation of the 68 set or just a "common" card of the MB set ? Or both ? :)

Has anyone ever seen this before with this Aaron card or any other from the 1960 set? Could it be doctored?

1960
 

Interesting Larry. I have not seen anything like it in 1960. I have a couple of similar things from other years. Great card if a legit print defect

Al, after seeing the 63 Retzer, it certainly seems likely that this 60 Aaron is legit.

In regards to the 68 Torborg, I have a Hiller #461 with a similar print defect on the right side.....I could not find an uncut sheet from this series, but I wonder if the Torborg and Hiller are next to each other on the sheet?

Here is an image of the 60 Aaron also:

Very cool card. Looks to be missing most of the black ink. Doubt it is doctored, pretty hard to remove the black in the logo and leave the red.

Larry-- I have one of the Hiller's as well, both it and the Retzer are recurring. Wonder if the Aaron is unique.

Ben, I agree, it does appear that just the black ink is missing from that area of the card and this Aaron is legit.

Al, my guess is that either or both of the cards that appeared next to Aaron (or possibly all 11 on the Aaron's row) on it's original sheet are likely missing the black ink in the same area. I was not able to locate an image of the sheet from that series to see which cards were located next to the Aaron. Even with the age of the internet, I have never seen any other 1960 Topps cards like this, so it may very well be unique.

Found this..while it is tough to see, the left's card "C" on the cap stays on the white, while on the other, the "C" extends just slightly onto the blue background. Imagine there being yet another cropping variation on a 63 Topps card, and as with many of the cropping variations, there appear to be an equal number of each.
