I picked up a factory set of 2015 Topps yesterday and used it to finish off my set. I can across something that confuses me a bit. Can someone help out.
I have two different versions of card #558 Patrick Corbin. The one on the left I got out of packs, the one on the right is from the factory set. ![]() The backs are identical (including the code). The card on the left is the same photo as #116 Vidal Nuno. I haven't seen anything about the error on line yet. |

Neat find Mark. In older sets there have been cases where Topps got the photo of a player wrong. Sometimes they corrected them and sometimes not. I think in some of the Heritage sets there have been intentional SP player errors.
Factory sets tend to come from latter print runs, so maybe it was a corrected error |

Wow, to me that's a heck of an error. In 2015 I didn't think it possible to use the wrong photo on a card.

Haven't seen that one mentioned anywhere I visit either. The three on COMC are all the Nuno picture, and since that's the one in circulation from packs, that doesn't surprise me.

One does have to wonder if Topps had any forethought on this. In order to get the corrected card you have to buy the factory set....How convenient.

Topps definitely puts deliberate variations to increase sales. for the past 4 or 5 years at least about 20 Photo variations in each series Plus those in update series. I am putting together a 2012 Master set and having fun doing it in fact added a card last week a SSP Pujols BGS 9.5. And in 2007 the Jeter/Bush error was not corrected until the factory set so this is SOP for Topps these days. Good catch..
