67 Carew rookie print variation

[rsdill2]

Just noticed this while looking at Carew's. There appears to be a back variation where the green border bleeds into the white background a little. Looking at current listings on ebay, it appears to be quite a bit more rare than the standard no green bleed card.

Took these pictures from current ebay listings so they may not last forever. Notice the green bleed to the left of Carew's minor league stats on the variation. It appears to be recurring as I saw several of the green bleed variations at various sources. I actually have both in my collection.

Here's a normal "non green bleed" variety:

and here's a "green bleed" variation:

Anyone ever notice this before? Which version do you have in your collection?

The one in my set has no errant ink, but the black border on the left is within the green rather than on the edge, so there is green on both sides of the black border

Here is mine for reference...not the best pic, it's from the old ebay listing -

I also have this raw version...looks like both mine have no bleed...

What's funny is I am unofficially collecting all the 67 variants for some reason...don't know if I need 3 Carews...haha

Lawyer like precision.
