I ran across this odd and timely print anomaly today...

It did remind me of the possibility. There was a Magic the Gathering set in the 90s where the equipment wasn't fully cleaned after printing some Charlie Brown cards, and some of the Charlie Brown images were lightly imprinted in the background.

It might all be a plot by a few high volume sellers to sell ordinary run of the mill cards to unsuspecting error collectors that would otherwise just sit in their inventories.

I dont generally collect such things but this card fits nicely in my collection. The team photograph is printed on the non gloss side of the card stock and the back of the card is printed on the glossy side of the card stock. There is also a wet transfer of the back of the card on the front of the card. This is the first version of this card with these printing anomalies I have encountered.

Interesting: a real "flip stock" as they're called in Topps Heritage.

Thanks for that information. I was unaware that Topps is currently intentionally making "flip stock" cards. Although it is unlikely to possess much value, is it safe to assume this one in my collection is a rarity?

I saw a handful of 72s like that offered years ago. Maybe in the 90's?
The asking price was way too high for me at the time. It's really nice to see one. |
