Touch'EmAll, it appears to me that thet the bottom border of your very nice WaJo card is hand cut. This is one reason I suspect that your card is not a W575-1, but rather a W501 Type 2 (or W501-2) card, which to the best of my knowledge is not yet recognized by the TPGs. Net54er Rhett Yeakley wrote about these in the Fall 2011 issue of Old Cardboard Magazine - see pics of the relevant pages below. In addition to the way Rhett says you can tell them apart, I have found that the rectangular box containing the player's pic of a W575-1 card is approx. 1/16" wider and 1/16" higher than that of a W501-1 and a W501-2. I have also included below pics of my W501-1 and W501-2 cards of WaJo which appear to look more like your card than my W575-1 of WaJo that I showed earlier in this thread. I hope this info is helpful, rather than disappointing, to you. If Rhett sees this thread, hopefully he will chime in.
