1968 Topps Eddie Mathews
Does anyone know what might be to the left of this Eddie Mathew's card? I'm used to seeing a white order if it's off cut, and this is red and yellow?

Mathews was on the left side of the printing sheet, a very miscut card to the left will show a sliver of the area of the sheet that wasn’t meant to be part of the card.

The 1968 Topps 1st Series Eddie Mathews was a 2x, that means it was printed once on each slit. Apparently the Mathews on one slit has white on the furthest left edge, the Mathews on the second slit must have been printed with the the thin red line and the yellow behind the red line which wasn't meant to show on the card if the sheet was cut properly. I found another 68 Mathews with the red line and the yellow behind it that is definitely not a Milton Bradley Win-A-Card issue.

There are currently two miscut 1968 Milton Bradley Win-A-Card Eddie Mathews cards on eBay, both show the white edge.

There's also a ton of non-Milton Bradley Eddie Matthews that show a white line too. There's also this one that is really miscut.

I don’t really understand it, as the yellow/red is not caused by an offset layer of ink, but this is not uncommon for certain non-white or black border Topps cards. 71 Football has the same thing on sheet edge cards, sometimes you get this, sometimes you get the normal border color, sometimes white.
