Picked these two up in separate sales the last few months, both here on N54. I like miscuts, even cooler when they are extreme and have a star.

I love print errors like that with the out of control black ink.

Going through my 1971's again, thought I'd resurrect this with a request for data on the Game Cards. For as long as I've been in the hobby, some of the Game inserts have been marked as DP's. The one thing I've learned about football cards is that what the hobby thinks are SP's and DP's are often wrong once we see a sheet. I'd be surprised if Starr and Namath are NOT DP's as they seem extremely abundant, but does anyone have an image of a sheet of the game cards?
I think there is a legitimate stock difference too, which unlike most Topps stock variations is visible on the front. It could be toning, with the sample size I've had in hand I suspect it is not toning. |

Dang that field marker was the WORST thing to find in a pack back in the day!
I love that sheet, THANKS for sharing. As of yet , I don’t have the same obsession for the game cards and posters that I do for the regular sets but I have a few sets. Probably have a dozen extra field markers too LOL. I know this part is changing the subject of the game card sheet, but since I’m posting anyway… Update on my 1971 Topps Football set collection: I collated another 9 partial sets earlier this week. I have 47 sets underway, 31 complete. And thousands of more cards towards set numbers 48+. I’m always looking for more. Hit me up if you have any that you have tired of…

Greg …that’s 9 partial sets this week. Collated from a monster box full that I just didn’t have time nor card supplies for previously.
I’ve only got 31 Bradshaw cards. So that is how many are full sets. I still need some more Sayers/Namath/Greene cards to get farther along too. It may be a sickness. Glad I’m not the only one… Excuse me while I head over to eBay and look for large lots (again)

I’ve actually just started pulling out the severe miscuts into a separate pile with the notion of doing exactly what you are suggesting!
How cool is that! I also only count a MC if it’s pretty serious, enough to recognize the other card. We are aligned in our ways. I don’t have many miscuts yet but it sounds like a cool diversion while gathering over 100 Jim Butler cards… I have other ideas on how to expand subsets of this awesome set. I’ll post them at some point but not tonight 😂

Found in a small lot of 100ish 71's, 3 pretty out of register commons and another 'purple sky' printing issue. Nice surprise when these worthless but cool defects come in in lots.

Some surprise mail from a board member. Love the misprints, miscuts and other factory mistakes. The upside down wrong back is a centered #108 Dan Sullivan on the front

Big thanks to Greg for a pair of my favorite card ever… #186 Jim Kiick!
It was just a generous random act of kindness. Two Kiicks in the mail is tough to beat! So great, great!
