Hello all:

I finally got around to sorting through a real nice stack of some 1975 Topps that I bought as part of a collection months ago, and I came across a strange error card.

Pictured on the front is George Hendrick of the Indians, which is #109 in the set. But the reverse shows #344 Ben Oglivie of the Tigers, perfectly centered as if it was the card back for that card.

Anyone ever come across something like this or see one of these from '75 before? Any light you can shed on this is much appreciated.

Rob

They are uncommon printing errors, but do happen. I had some Fleer cards that had Fleer baseball fronts and Fleer football backs. Those were some of the oddest I've seen.

As stated - they are uncommon but certainly not rare. Probably only has a minimal value to an error collector.
