Default T222 Fatima *Headless* Oldring for Sale....SOLD!!

This has to be the ultimate oddity - the player's actually missing his head! So yes, we have a t222 "Headless" Oldring here. A while back, I believe we had a thread on the board here about the cause of this goof. I think that some of the better theories involving this oddity included that chemicals may have removed the head, post-print production. The card getting too close to an open flame was another good theory.

There's a good theory in place that suggests the card could have been a pre-production issue as well. The card having an under developed photograph that made it through the production process was a popular one. I believe other cards from other sets have shown up that have this issue as well.

** EDIT ** ... Ahhh, I found the thread....here it is in case anyone wants to read about the card a bit further and theories involved - https://www.net54baseball.com/showth...t=t222+oldring

Regardless, it's pretty dang cool! Asking $60 delivered.

Thanks in advance!
