Show...me...your print variations!

Here's a variation of the 1956 Haddix - red line in the upper right corner.

I've seen a lot of posts about 1956 variations but have not seen this one mentioned.

It APPEARS to me, after researching this card, that this only occurs on gray back versions. I have not seen it on the white ones. I have a gray one and it has the line. I think I did see a gray back on eBay that did not have the line, but I am not sure. Thanks for posting this!

Pretty happy I found this thread - well sort of, now it looks like I have about a weeks worth of digging through boxes ahead of me.

I stumbled upon these blank backs - I imagine they are pretty standard issue but I haven't been able to find any information on them or similar cards. Any help is appreciated.

Keep up the great work - love the content here!

Nice finds Joe....not sure how common these 1960s blanked backed cards are, however, in many years of going through cards I have come across just this one blank backed Sullivan card. Recently I came across this Harris card with the Essegian back upside down.

Those are great - I just discovered a 1971 Topps card that has a similar issue as your Harris/Essegian except the back is split between two players, will have to dig that one out again.

This is #14 Fenian and #30 Power. Notice the lack of a top line on the logos. You can see on the Fenian that the bat in the Athletics logo touches to the top margin on one version.

Came across these two 68 Al Jackson cards that were both in the same lot that came in the other day....both copies in the lot have the same obscured print on the back. There is a slight obstruction starting on the card's left side ("Maj." on the totals stat line) to obscuring "E.R.A." on the stats header line to the right. 1967 Topps have multiple cases of recurring print obstructions on card backs, this is one of the first recurring cases I have seen with 1968s. The question now is, does the print obstruction carry over onto either the card to the left or right of this card on the sheet?

Our friend lowpopper/rookie-parade introduced a very similar error/variation on the 1955 Topps Dick Groat on eBay that I was going to show here but forgot to.
