The 1948 Topps thread reminded me, I have found multiple variations in the Kellogg's Pep Zale card, not just the well known reverse negative error. Here are two of them:

I have four of them with slight differences in cropping that you can best see at the trunks. All are correct negative (righty stance). Anyone else want to chime in?

Nice catch....I love looking for variations in cards. It seems any photo developed cards that it would almost be impossible for the factory to get the photo enlarger at the same height for every run, or different employees ran the machine. Great find.

Another variation a noted a while back on my PSA registry (and now a seller on eBay used to list the card) is the radio ad on the bottom of the Tunney 1946 PROPAGANDAS MONTIEL LOS REYES DEL DEPORTE. I have only found the ad on or off the yellow border....and no evidence of an orange border with the ad. I would like PSA to acknowledge these cards too. Has anyone else seen the advertisement on cards of other boxers?
