Very neat, not sure what they are..... could they be some type of progressive proof missing the black ink portion of the printing?

Looks like they missed the gray and black ink on that sheet.

Since they have regular backs I do not think they are proofs. Agree with Adam that black/gray color defect. Neat items

Them are some cool missing black ink cards. Not real sure of price but I would love to have one. If you would part with one please let me know.
Do they look to be factory cut?

There would be a wide range of values for the lot....but probably under $50+/- to the right buyer. I don't see a lot of these types of cards - but the market isn't that deep either.

If you want to see them added to a 1970 collection that includes a full PSA 9 (or better) registry set, wax, cello and rack unopened, and all sorts of additional 1970 Topps pieces then send me a message. I'd be a buyer.

If you want to know what they are worth put them on eBay or the BST here. Looks like you already have some interest.

They are all from the first series and are all cut with identical centering, so I would think it is safe to say they are all from the same exact sheet.

I'd be interested also. You really have to auction them to get an idea of value because print freaks price out all over the place.

Time and the increase in obsessive compulsive types ...like us :)....sure change things. If you had found that card in a pack in 1970 you likely would have felt Topps dad screwed you;)
