OT: Why Modern is sooooooo funny
Posted By: <b>Kyle</b><p>I had to share this with you guys. I think this takes the cake of all "errors", whether labeling, names, etc.<br /><br /><a href="http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=11&threadid=562522" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=11&threadid=562522</a><br /><br />Happy weekend!<br />-Kyle-

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>What is weird about this apparent mistake is that the Thomas signature is on a clear sticker, which<br />I assume means UD paid the person to sign the sticker and received it from the player (Modern card<br />companies often have the players sign sticker sheets, with the individual stickers applied to the card). <br />Similar mixups I've seen involved old cuts purchased from independant dealers.

Posted By: <b>Jim Dale</b><p>Its sad when these mistakes occur. They sadly happen all too often in modern cards. UD needs to find a way to buy that puppy back quick. I liken this to grading issues I've seen pointed out here when people question a PSA or SGC grade. I'm still wrestling with BGS over a mislabeled card (wrong year)
