Here is an interesting one. The card is 1.5" wide and has the gold missing down the left side where it appears the edge of the sheet may have been.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.

Jay, I'm not seeing Polar Bear, just a bunch of Broadleafs, The "Baseball Series Assorted Designs" is bigger on PB backs, and they all appear small like on Broadleaf backs.

I think you are right. I think all the letters getting typed over each other made me think Polar Bear at first glance.

given that the Broadleafs are fairly uncommon in the T-205 set.

I've never really analyzed to make out the other names on the back of the card, but I'm pretty sure I see Otto Knabe for starters.

Great card, Marc. Seems odd now but 20 years ago a lot of us turned up our noses at "ghost images" and bizarre printing such as these. I remember many years ago turning down a T206 Bates because it was missing a color which left his uniform collar white. It was in exmt condition and sold for peanuts in an auction run by a guy whose name I can not remember but who used to have an extensive auction list about every 3 or 4 months and was the first person I knew who used the internet for baseball card auction sales. Anyone know who I am referring to????
