Now you could send people or a cruel scavenger hunt by showing this card in a new thread, saying this is a newer before seen typo error you recently discovered.

Doubtful this was considered a mistake at the time. Topps didn't always get an A in grammar and punctuation, especially if you look at the back of some 1950's and 60's cards.

That is the absolute truth! Take a gander at Topps football cards in the 70s. License? We don't need no stinkin' license! We'll just airbrush off all the logos. What ensued was a decade of laziness and horrible looking cards brought on by monopoly. Quality control stuff like the Babe is no surprise at all.

Another example I just found of spacing not being Topps' forte. Shouldn't the "Bob" be down another line closer to his last name? It's also not even on the left in comparison to the last name, where other '63 cards seem to be.
