The 1954 Bowman Roe is a well known variation caused by the signature of the player above the card spilling down onto the Roe card. There are a few other examples in the set as well.

I noticed on Richard D's variation list that this 59 432 Burgess card has a variation that has a rounded upper right corner....I did not see it mention the small streak that appears below Smoky's first name. Is the rounded corner only found on the card with the streak or is there a version with the rounded corner sans the streak?

Default Rounded

The rounded corner can more typically be found without the streak

Thank you Al, have you seen a copy with the streak but without the rounded corner? In a really quick look, I found only one copy on ebay/comc with the streak.

For my personal variations list, I have the corner separated into distinct 4 shapes:
1. Squared corner
2. Smoothly rounded corner
3. Jagged rounded corner
4. Frankenstein corner

There may be others, too.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

The Burgess is a bit reminiscent of the 1971 Jim Northrup 'scratchy' variation. There are actually 3 different scratches:
1. Very dark, as if written with a magic marker
2. Medium dark
3. Very light

These scans (internet grabs) are a bit flawed. In reality, the difference between the medium and light versions is quite dramatic.
