1969 Topps Deckle Edge Brooks Robinson Proof?
 
2 Attachment(s)
Came across this card in a collection I recently bought. It appears to be a 1969 Topps Deckle Edge Brooks Robinson card but has the name in black, not blue, and is blank backed. Were there proofs of this issue? Thanks

I believe it is an OPC Deckle but I could be wrong.

OPC deckles have a different deckle cut then the regular Topps and black dignities. A proof would have square corners.

Thanks to all for the info. Sorry about posting in wrong forum. Guess Leon moved it to the right section.

There are Topps 1969 Deckle proof sheets. They feature 9 players only one of which, Yastremski, appears in the set. They indicate Topps considered blue, red and black autos. Interestingly, the players on the 3 different proof sheets are not all in the same places
