1972 Roger Staubach Rookie #200 Blank Back
 

Hi:

I was lucky enough to pick up a Staubach Rookie blank-backed card. I was wondering if everyone thinks this is an error or a proof, and if it is considered more valuable than the regular issue?

Thanks.

I would say it's an error blank back card. In my experience, proofs usually seem to have some paperwork or documentation. If it doesn't, asking the seller a few questions always helps.

If you have a proof card and compare it to a regular card, you will notice how much more crisp and clear the image is on the proof, and the colors are always a more solid, deeper or brighter color than a regular card.

As far as more valuable, I would say yes, but to a very limited group...either to a hard core Staubach fan, or somone who's interest is only cards associated with the 1972 set, or error collectors, etc.

I collect proofs, blank backs and errors from the 1978 Topps football set and would love to have a blank back Staubach from that issue. Anyone have one? or others from the 1978 set?

I hope this helped

Happy collecting!
