Since those 4 are mine, which I hunted down after Thomas posted his. I agree the defect can be ground on cards with either back. Reminds me of the 52 Yellow Tiger House that can be found on both the regular and scarce grey back versions

78 Niekro - seems to be an uncorrected print defect. I looked through a couple hundred examples without a correction.

Looks like there is a second gray blob over Simpson's name and position as well. I found several online, so it looks like this Gatewood variant isn't too tough to locate.

I recall there are other 'fairly large blob of one color with scribble looking mark of another color in the center of it' cards in 1961 Topps. Haven't seen this one before and don't see another. Anyone know of another copy?

Now that I'm posting it I notice it appears the black border at top left is misshapen. Will have to see if that's on them all.

Just discovered an interesting “print error” (?) from one of those 80s Junk Era cards…does this have any value? Has anyone else seen this on Topps cards?

Does it consist of a new “error,” to be added to a (growing) list of errors from this 1987 Topps series?

It’s a defect, but the $999 you are asking for it on eBay is about 10,000 times it’s worth.

Beyond my pay grade but there may be a big pockets 1987 Buddy Bell collector out there. Never hurts to ask.

Cool one, just snagged a Schofield.. Batters box has one at $1.70 for anyone else. Looks like it’s fairly uncommon but not super tough.

I found Plummer and Biittner with the line so it affected at least Weaver, Oliver, Fisk, Plummer, and Biittner, I couldn't find any Blyleven, Harrelson, Caldwell, or Harrah cards with the line but it no doubt runs through at least Blyleven. I have had a 73 Aparicio with a line at the bottom for years that I never knew what to make of, I believe now it was above Al Oliver on one of those 1973 sheets where they printed 66 cards twice rather than all 132 cards, I never understood why Topps used that method in the early 70's.

Default Short Prints

I know that these differences in the amount of red ink on his face don't really make a variation, but they are a new kind of "Short prints"!

That confirms it’s recurring. I’d like to see it if it’s no trouble, if this is one of those variants where there’s multiple versions of the printing issue. I can’t find other examples online yet.

Ha, you found it as I was typing. Your example is much nicer, mark looks the same to me on both copies.

Recurring means I have to go buy a proper one now for my set. Dang it!

I picked up the following recently.

The 71 orange checklist hats are giving me fits. I really have a tough time seeing the color differences between them. I have a few more checklist variations to go and the 71 set should be done for what I have been looking for.

I always suspected that Topps might have hired a Chinese firm to add various random recurring print defects to their cards

Maybe we can request some additional ‘limited’ runs to fill in some holes.

I always thought the "Printed in U.S.A." on the back of Topps cards was BS. I knew it was really done in China.

Woody stole all the credit. We know what happened. After Mao saw his Bowman card, he went to work with Topps and secretly relocated them to China.

Please do all of us a favor and DO NOT EVER QUOTE ONE OF THESE OBVIOUS SCAMMER POSTS when you want to make a comment about them. When you quote the post, it copies what the scammer posted in your response, including the potentially dangerous link the scammer included. No one knows if that link is safe, or if it could lead someone that errantly clicks on it to get hit with a virus, or something else, maybe even worse.

And it creates even more work for Leon who now has to delete the original scammer post, and potentially dangerous link, and now do the same with your post where you copied/quoted what the scammer wanted everyone to see, including that potentially dangerous link.

Just trying to look out for everyone's online safety.

Many Posts come like this, with hugely different aesthetics, like Pancho who is red in one card.

There's a real variation here though, the pictures are different. Note the cropping at his hand.

Ok, with me liking to read the back of cards, I found a 1967 topps 548 Tony Gonzalez with a blotch of whiteness on the back, I’ve looked at all listed on eBay and haven’t found another, anybody seen before?

My Gonzalez is clean, but I have seen this on a number of other 1967's in different series. I think it's one of those issues that can, theoretically, affect pretty much every card in the set. Don't see them that often, but I haven't paid a whole ton of attention to them. Too many for me to chase!

EDIT: I'm glad I'm not the only one who reads the backs. I spend more time reading the write-ups and stats than looking at the fronts.

I’ve never found one of the series 1 all green backs. I’ve probably spent 50 hours of my life looking through dealers boxes at shows trying…

Nearly every Post cereal card has some form of image or cropping variation due to the boxes the card originally appeared on. One exception would be from the 1961 Post team perforated cards, I have not seen cropping/image variations with those. Not to say they don't exist, I just haven't seen them.

this is going to turn into another large box project. I hadn't noticed the crops before, just the massive color differences.

IIRC, there are approximately 550 unique 1962 Post cards (this includes the different backs). I don't recall exactly how many different 1961 Post there are, but there 190+ regular box cards plus the 160 perforated cards as well as some different cropping/image variations with the regular box cards. With the 1963 Post there seem to be fewer cropping/image variations than the 1961s. I have found even fewer (if any?) with the 1963 Jello set. I don't have enough of the 1962 Jello to know how many variations might be in that set. Finally, there are numerous variations (crop and text) with the 1962 Post Canadian set...this in one set I am content with having only one version of each card. Between the Post and Jello baseball sets from 1961 -1963 there are around 1800 unique cards.

I've been casually building the base sets for a year or two, but base sets always turn into master sets. Guess this one will take a lot longer to cross off than I originally thought.

I don't think this has been shared yet.

The cream backs come with the A in "American" broken or printed properly. I have not seen a white back with the A correct, but I did not look very hard.

Default 1979 Topps Rusty Staub variation or print error

Does anyone else have a 1979 Topps #440 Rusty Staub with a variation on the front of the card on Staub's helmet that look like a large peanut? Is it a recognized variation?

Thanks!

You have a picture or a post # for it? I would guess it is a print error like almost every card in this thread. They are fun to collect but very few are actually recognized variations.
