1985 Topps Partial Blackless
 
6 Attachment(s)
There are at least three 1985 Topps cards and possibly four that were affected by a recurring print defect that is similar to the 1990 Topps partial blackless cards. Jerry Royster, Jorge Orta, Ivan DeJesus, (and possibly Junior Ortiz) each have areas of missing black border lines with Royster also completely missing the black TOPPS logo. I have seen between five to ten of Royster and DeJesus over the years but I have only ever seen two Orta cards. I don't know if Ortiz was also affected in the bottom right corner but if I had to guess I would say he was, although it wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb because of the dark blue background.

The 1985 Topps Junior Ortiz partially blackless does exist, I just did an eBay check and was shocked to see one. The seller is in Italy and I might have just thrown away $10 if it is a stock photo, but at least I now know it exists.

Hope it works out Cliff
