I should have known it has been discussed before, I even responded in that thread but have absolutely no memory of it.

I need to recheck but think I have 2 versions of CL 2 from 73 ( likely just a PD). I think it involved the Bonds card

On the 63 CL 1 the box differences are subtle. I think the easiest way to spot the 2 is the location of the CR to the top of the box

[e6phillips]

There are at least 5 variations of this card:

1. Blue background
2. White background
3. Blue background with overprint from the back of the card in the upper left
4. White background with overprint from the back of the card in the upper left
5. Blue background with white splotch above the “e” in Zuverink with overprint from the back.

There may be other permutations of these variations. The amount of the overprinting varies. All of the 5 varieties I’ve found are common.

A few years ago I was all psyched, because I found a new variation - a red streak on the 1972 Topps #300 Hank Aaron 'In Action' card that was a continuation of the one found on a small amount of #306 Boswell IA cards. I had parades planned, the bakery was making me a celebratory cake, etc., and then BOOM!!! I was told that this version was reported many years ago and could already be found on many 'official' variations lists. I still ate the cake. I mean, I'm not an animal.

Good to know I am not the only one!!

I had a couple of Zuverinks but did not realize there were so many different versions

[G1911]

I believe that leaves 70 and 71 1st series without a known variation. I have neither as having a variant in my custom checklist (besides that the 70 comes in very obviously different white or cream stock, like every card in the series).

Ralph Nozaki, Dick Gilkeson and Richard Dingman all list a variation of the 1970 series 1 checklist as either the player's bat touches the top border or does not touch. Here are my 2
