Posted By: <b>Steve</b><p>...But schizophrenic as well?<br /><br /> I've been admiring this low-val, little respected set for several years and impressed by the rainbow of inks and different cardstock types (I'm a stripcard ho'). <br /><br /> Recently, I've noticed two player photo sizes within the stamped border. This is confirmed by a consistent L border flaw present in all V1s (possibly a dinged plate). Also, I've observed subtle style differences in the text V1 (V1a, b) - on card #4 thusfar.<br /><br /> File this under 'dilligaf', but it's the subtle differences I find intriguing in this hobby.<br /><br /> For those not bored silly, note that V2 has larger images, readily noticable in Ruth's L heel/R hand and Gehrig's brim distances from the printed border. Incidentally, though unconfirmed, these idiosyncracies suggest a slightly lower resolution or focus in all V2s. I hope to obtain a Ruth #4 V2 this week to confirm this notion.<br /><br />(All eight examples are authentic.)<br /> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1195404153.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1195404724.JPG">
