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

Question for big AL you have everything else even the 1958 mantles I love….do you have this crazy 1969 rookies???? This one just sold for 13,500 and a raw one in my fb group did $9500 I was told

1954 Topps #234 Jerry Lynch - assists and errors for 1953 partially obscured. Noticed it while playing with my 54 set this morning. I checked COMC and 1 out of the 16 Lynch's they have listed has this defect, so it is recurring and probably less common than the correct copy.

Too bad it’s not completely gone or I’d be buying one! Phil rizzuto has one like that too

Of course he does , post #319 on page 7 of this thread.

While checking which Rizzuto I have (I'm sure I've missed or don't recall posts among the 2,800+), I remembered the Jackie defects I don't think have been mentioned before.

There are multiple recurring minor defects on the back of 1954 Topps #10 Jackie Robinson. My copy here has a white triangle next to his 12 home runs, a white slash next to P.O., and the F. Avg. label is partially obscured.

Here's one from COMC, with with the P of P.O. partially obscured, and the F. Avg. incomplete. Notice his 136 games is also partially obscured.

Third, a copy from COMC with the F. Avg. complete to show it's not all cards that come this way.

There are at minimum several different total combinations of recurring defects, some easy and some rare-very rare.

Defects are a lot more fun on cheap commons

1962 #504 Eddie Bressoud. Similar to the 69 Moses I just posted, there’s a black dash in the border, however, unlike Moses, this one is on the back. This one is in my collection, I just stumbled upon it when sorting. I’ve looked at about 150 other examples in different places and haven’t found another. I thought maybe it was a stray ink pen but it isn’t.

I found this card today and I have never seen it before. Is this a new blue streak?

Nice find, Craig is on the top (or bottom) row of the F* sheet so unfortunately there aren't other possible cards connected to the flaw like the Clemens-Seaver-Puhl combo.

[ALR-bishop]

Another one

[Northviewcats]

Found this 1971 Munson in a group of cards that I just got in. Has anyone else seen the black loop in the right border. The area is smooth to the touch and looks like stray ink in the printing process. Printing error?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Joe

The following I have gathered since my last postings on the subject.

In order of appearance:

Beckert: Orange scratches below 'G' in Glenn autograph
Campisi: No red lipstick on nose. Not sure if this is the variation or the regular version.
Lolich: Black blob and blue blob next to team name.
Reed: Both have the red mark by his head and one has the red mark and scratches in the grass on the left side of the picture.
Stone: Green splotches on uniform.
Such: Line in 'e' in Pitcher
Walton: I show both here as it is the best example of the variation. This has the black mark on the billboard where it is circled. This one is in the Dingman's list and I believe this is what he referred to on his explanation. Again, happy to be wrong here if someone else can validate it.

And the very last one:

75 Topps Checklist #1. This is repeatable too. The 'd' in record next to Kaline is partially missing, same can be said for the Ryan line too. I have not seen this listed anywhere and, again, I believe a new variant noted within this set.

Feel free to differ.

I will post all my 71 checklists in a different post. Those things are pulling what is left of my hair out trying to gather the color differences.

Cheers,

Butch

Nice Butch, curious when you post a new find do you include all versions you know of? In some cases I know of other versions you did not mention, so not sure if you are aware.

If there is a interest I can report my known versions on a card that someone has reported on. John

If you go back and read this entire thread, there is a fair chance it has been posted. I’m not gonna rehash that information. I’m just posting the ones I pick up, when I find them.

I also have a database of what I have found previously. So, I just post the finds that are new to my collection. Hence the name of this thread.

Additionally, If you have a variation that is not listed previously or you just wish to post your collection of variations, please, by all means do so. If it is something we don’t have, we will commence to searching.

Cheers,

Butch

This appears to be a one off as I have never seen another copy with black sleeves and cap or hat.

[jchcollins]

Forgive me if this has been pointed out before; I did not comb through all 60+ pages in this thread:

I call this the "horizontal line between a foul pole (?) or otherwise two vertical lines" in the '63 Clemente. See 2nd pic. The horizontal line doesn't appear on all of them.

This would not appear to affect the grade, as I've seen otherwise sharp copies "with horizontal line" in high grade slabs. I always kind of considered it a printing error, but I guess not everyone does. What is this, does anyone know? Roller mark? Hair or some other detritus left on a printing plate?

I know this is not baseball, but is an interesting variation I came across with the yellow area on the bottom right. There are many of these on eBay so anyone who is interested can have their pick.

[butchie_t]

Not sure how this will be received but I never let that be a barrier for posting.
The following is a consolidation of the 69 Gaylord Perry variations that I have assembled. I figure having them in a single spot later in this thread was better than having to hunt them down throughout the thread. Kinda sorta like I did with the 75 Brent Strom’s (Stromsters).

I believe that my version of the Gaylord Perry with the blue stripe/mark/line etc. on his forehead is a one off unless someone has found another. The two blue lines is also potentially a one off too. Regardless, they are all listed here, front and back regardless of where the variation lies on the card front/back.

I'm always looking for that next one, so if there is one in your collection that you are comfortable with posting, please, by all means do so.

I'll start with the White Letter Cards I have. I have saved the images using the nomenclature that was used by Larry in prior posts.

Cheers,

Butch

[butchie_t]

Now the YL variations. Combined, I have 10 of Gaylord Perry variants.

Back to your regular scheduled collecting.

Regards,

Butch
