Just checking . . . does anybody have a 1955 Topps Jim Robertson card that has complete red lines around the stats in this area?

As is my card. I don't have a scanner set up.

Here it is...

ALL of the '55T Robertsons currently on eBay that have back scans have the missing box segments.

Are there any examples that have an "in-between" stage between full lines and missing lines?

[Rich Klein]

I don't remember the details (and I may have the year wrong) but Jeff Lichtman posted details on some 1955 "variation" (I think it was just an innocent scan but sparked a discussion) and some people on the board had conniptions because their "secret" was going to be revealed.

I wonder how many more printing "variations" like this exist in the 55 set?

Bob--I also have one with the boxes complete, but no third transition card
