With the back of the 1960 Topps 138 Art Mahaffey card, there appears to be two different versions. On the first version, the colored area covering the vitals and statistics panel stops short of the ball containing the card's number, while on the other variety, the colored area extends all of the way to the back's left edge, as with nearly every other 1960 Topps card.

Interesting Larry---various degrees of the different margins as well
The Spinks border irregularity at top is fairly common, those on left side less so. Here is one with it on top and lower on side

Al, what is also interesting is I don't recall seeing another 1960 card with it's back like this.....I would think that the this card was probably on an uncut sheet's right edge. I can't seem to find a 1960 uncut sheet from this series to see where it is located on the sheet and what card is above/below this one. Possibly the card above/below may be similar. Either way, it appears that about 1 in 5 copies of this card have the shortened coloring.
I have seen dozens and dozens of the Spinks card with the top border break, but have yet to see one with either the side or both the top/side. Nice find. The search will continue for one besides the top border break. |

Somewhere in this thread is another 1960 card with similar back issue. Will look for it later

Recurring print defect in yellow banner. Would love to know of any other variations/defects with this specific card.

...I was assembling some newly-arrived partial sets into a complete set and came across the card in the middle ; very distinctly blue in hand...I searched E-Bay and it appears to be about two out of ten have that blue hue; there's a gorgeous overpriced "8" with this shade on there now-it even extends to the uniform....he was a great guy and athlete and died 'way 'way too young... .. |
