My definition of a complete set is a card featuring every design that was printed, regardless of the advertisement. The design (meaning artwork and text) of the card was intended to be identical regardless of the ad back. The text on the back of the Doc White card was not intended to change in any way based on the ad brand. However, some Doc White cards were printed without quotation marks in the text. To me, this constitutes a different design and therefore a variation. I couldn't care less how many different ad brands appear with this variation because I do not consider the ad brand when checklisting my set. I only consider the design of the card.
