Notice that the letters on the pinker version at left dive below the bottom border and are red. This also results in a pinkish line at the top of the left one.

Red squiggle on left side of 1960 #276 Ken McBride.
6 of the 60 cards currently for sale on COMC have it.

Yep, the red is out of register. All the red is printed a bit low.

That card like many in the set can be found with noticeably different background coloring

Noticed mine is OK.

I have heard of few anomalies with the 52 Topps cards but I never knew there were so many.

I enjoy these types threads about the 52 Topps cards, and my biggest mystery, that was asked some time ago, is the Herman/Williams card the same guy?

Edit: After looking at further pictures, I believe that is Billy Herman on his card and not Dick William. Could be wrong, but some of these pics, imo, clear up the mystery.

This is post 80 but wanted some feedback on it. Was this a card Topps doctored to correct it, or just a print defect that faded

This is recurring with the red dot at the top as I had one and just bought a better one on eBay. I noticed that there are at least four on eBay and one on COMC with this.

Nice find on the recurring print spot....just noticed this 58 Albie Pearson card with a recurring yellow "print spot" between the "l" and "b" in Albie.

We should randomly pick a few cards from some Topps sets, assign one or two to the regulars in here and see if we can find a variant for each card. Of course as a retired guy that seems like a good use of time to me

I agree, Al. Great idea!

Good luck.
