Oops. Yeah, I forgot about that. Good luck trying to figure it out. Hopefully it's something really rare for you.

Cool print error card. I know nothing about 90's cards especially basketball, but as soon as I saw it I figured it was the top of the uncut sheet. Sure enough, I was able to find an uncut sheet and the O'Neal is on the top (or bottom) row. I have seen other Topps baseball sheets where cards on the top or bottom row have similar print flaws. I looked through hundreds of the O'Neal card on eBay and COMC and didn't see another one. The other ten players on the same row as O'Neal should have the same print flaw, but who knows how many sheets were printed with the flaw before it was caught. ETA, one sold yesterday May 3 on eBay for $23 at 4 PM, too bad I didn't start looking sooner.

Most definitely a true reoccuring error.
I was able to find a copy to add myself -

There should also be the same print flaw of the other ten cards that were on the top row with Shaq. Christian Laettner, Todd Day, Tom Gugliotta, Robert Horry, Tracy Murray, Tony Bennett, etc., but I was never able to find any.

The only ones I can find are in the eBay sold section
. Here is a PSA 9 that sold for $101, but what is interesting about this one is that the print flaw extends further than the other examples, it goes well below the Topps logo.

Interesting that the “experts” at PSA looked right at it and saw nothing, lol.
As soon as I saw this post I started looking, a reoccurring error on one of the most important basketball rookies of the past 30 years is a nice find. I saw mine ASAP after it was posted and got it for a 35 dollar best offer. Super happy to check it off before it becomes well known.

After researching this, I believe the reason for not finding matching cards is that the error originated on the O'neal card. Most likely it was a chemical spill on the black plate that spread over the print run of (?).
Here is a card in my collection showing the earliest sign of the "blacklessing" near the hand extending into the border. Shaq phase one.jpg Next we have a card that sold last night I missed out on. This card shows the "blacklessing" extending from the original point. Shaq phase two.JPG Third we have the full top error of spread on this card in my collection - shaq phase three.JPG The extended PSA error you showed a couple posts ago would be the next phase of this.
