Default 1956 Joe Astroth

Here's a recurring error. It's not quite Pancho Hererr(a) but it's in the same league.

Always looking for 1956 salesman samples, miscuts, hand cuts, wrong backs, print errors and other variations.

Eric— I don’t do miscuts, wrong backs or blank backs but would be interested in your list of variations or recurring print defects ( front or back) for the 56 set if you are inclined to share it

I looked for a 1956 Topps 2nd Series sheet to see where the Astroth was placed on it, but unlike the 1st Series sheet which is plentiful I couldn't find a single scan of the 2nd Series anywhere. I did find a miscut Astroth with Harry Dorish under it, but no idea who was above or beside Astroth.

Default 1956 Variations

I've never seen a 2d series sheet either. Willard Nixon is above Astroth but I don't know who is to the right or left of Astroth or Nixon.

Here's my list of variations in the 56 set.

Vrechek article on the 56 flat cap or cropping differences. There are a boatload of them. Can share list of those I have if interested. I think sliphorn ( Tom) may have the most extensive list of them

https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0ge...T_vzmzidIKOIc-

To your list I would add 261 Shants with the defective A in Athletics on the front, 292 Aparicio with white background and 321 Konstanty with some green stat boxes missing on back

Have only 2 cards from a Salesman Sample and only an unopened penny pack for 56. 56 and 58 Topps unopened packs are tough. Anthony ( Griffins) may have a full panel and a 5 cent pack . I do have a full Topps Hocus Focus baseball subset for 56

Thanks for the additions to the list. There are times where I feel like if you look hard enough at each card in the set that you will find something.

One I forgot to include on my list is the WB Clemente with red dot next to his arm.

I have seen the Clemente but so far have not been able to get myself to spend that much on that red dot

Agree that if you pick out any card and look long enough you will probably find a print defect

By the way, there are 2 different red dot versions of the 67 Mantle, one top and one bottom. I did do those but so far no Clemente

As Al mentioned, I have a boatload of 1956 flat hatters. I have scans of all of them but it would bog down this server to post them all. The Clemente was one. Anyone who would want the entire pile of jpegs should email me so that I can reply with them. My email address is (if this site allows addresses( billingtw@sbcglobal.net.
