(non-man made) Print Error
I think the only variations listed as part of a set should be man made (then corrected) ones, not these missing letter/word ones where the printing plates were dirty. They are just print errors.
1958 Topps Herrer"a" is a good example. Its just a dirty printing plate..... Ive seen example with more of the "A" showing and also examples with some of the last "R" missing along with the "A".
If you start listing all the "lack of quality control" print errors (ie T206 missing red ink, etc.) then the book will be 2X bigger.
Within T206....... Nodgrass, Murr'y, Mitchell (Toront'), Shappe, etc. are all print errors too and should not be listed as a variation. IMO
