I have to admit that there is a whole world of additional variations not commonly identified by the collecting community. Here are the ones I discovered that are detailed in a prewarcards.com article, some already mentioned above:
Collins, Eddie - closed mouth w/yellow elephant
Graham, George - Rustlers w/blue signature
Hoffman, Danny - yellow 2nd base
Miller, Dots - middle initial 'D'
Miller, Dots - middle initial 'D' with partial 'B'
Snodgrass, Fred - missing decimal point on .405 batting average
White, Doc - no quotation marks on Doc
Any others known out there? I suggest on all of these less recognized variations that Speckled EGGS be awarded (otherwise known as an asterisk). So for example, if you have three of the above variations, you would have three asterisks beside your total.
The applicable saying could be as follows: You shouldn't put all your EGGS in the basket before they hatch"
