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

Yes, I have one or two 1982s that have most of the card covered in that blue color. Although, if memory serves, it does not cover the entire card like yours, more like 2/3 or card.

Here is the 1982 Topps E* sheet, Glenn Hubbard is the third card on the fourth row and Dewey Robinson is the fifth card on the fifth row. Undoubtedly at the very least the cards surrounding them were also printed with the same defect.

What type of print error is this blue streak? Is it recurring across the sheet? I saw about 12% of the cards listed for 1966, #381 with it this morning, but did not see others.

Probably a defective red plate so the blue shows through instead of being seen as purple.

If it's on the edge there might not be others. if it's in the middle somewhere the card to the right of it might also have a defect.

Was aware of blue line defect, but is that a green smudge on his face too ?

[Kevvyg1026]

I didn't see that smudge on any of the other blue defect cards, so I assumed it was just a scan artifact. However, most of the blue defect cards also have a line streak on his cheek.

the card is, I believe in column 9. Card 391 is in col 10, and 363 is in col 11
