It's either due to the speck of white to the right of his eyes or the tiny bit of black invading the the left corner of the green diamond on back. I just don't get it...but it's still a beautiful card.


Edited to add: other common 'print defects' are things such as print lines, or erroneous color shifts and whatnot.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
