Hi, all! I recently spotted this '66 Clemente, but don't recall ever hearing about a variation in which the "Pirates" team name is missing the pink dots inside the P and the A. Can anyone tell me how common (or not) this card is? Thanks!

Nice find Dean. I have not seen one like that before

While my initial thought is "print dots", I will say that if that's the case, they are well placed print dots.
Kind of cool.

For oft in pensive mood I lie, they flash upon the inner eye, and then my heart dost truly fill, and dances with....the print dots. These things are always on Doug's mind

That was never brought to my attention in my cataloging days.

The top white border seems to also extend into the banner and there appears to be some white above the crown of his cap, although the latter seems common on his 66 cards

That made me chuckle.
