Joe
Your Cubbage print error may be more like some of these 80 defects. The yellow name defects/variations carry a premium since they are listed in SCD as as variations...even though they are just print defects...like the 1961 Fairly green smudge on the back baseball, which PSA had now slabbed as a variation, even though it also is just a print defects. ![]() ![]()

I think it is a print defect, but some print defects, such as the 80 Stanley, the 52 Campos, the 57 Bakep and the 58 Herrer, and even the 61 Fairly have gone for large premiums, but only after being recognized as a "variation" in a major publication, Like SCD or Beckett, or in the PSA Registry master set list. Absent that, they are just oddities collected by a few oddballs...like me

Interesting thread. If you're into registry collecting, you have to be up on the variations, because you never know when something you "think" is a print error might wind up in the composite of your master set.

Michael---the 61 Fairly certainly proves your point. That defect occurs on numerous Topps 61 cards and they slab it as a variation whether the whole lower part of the ball is green or just a smidgeon

I agree mcadams, better to stay ahead of the curve than in a reactionary state and miss the boat.

There is however a medical term for such an obsessive state of readiness in regard to pieces of cardboard

I know I'm resurrecting from the dead a seven year old thread but I'm just now seeing this for the first time. There is a recurring print flaw on the left edge of the sheet that affected at least the 1981 Topps Mike Cubbage, Larry Cox, and Ramon Aviles cards, something partially blocked the red ink. I have found six of the Cubbage cards but I have only ever seen one Cox and one Aviles. It's possible other cards were affected.
