When it comes to collecting vintage errors and variations I am an obsessed person. I constantly search these things out. Since I still have some major cards needed to complete my sets, I figured I'd offer up some of these in trade for hits off of my need list. Take a look at the scans and LMK if you have any questions about any of the variations.
There are a few 1966 and 1967 cards missing the 'sold/traded/optioned' statements on back, there are the ridiculously tough to find 1966 'partially airbrushed' button on Landrum's pants and the holy grail of all variation cards, the 1967 'partially missing name' Spiezio. The rare times these come up on ebay they sell for some serious money. Besides those, there are a bunch of variation checklists from a few different years, a 'purple tree' Heffner, a 'green bat' Schaal, a 'partial green ball back' Fairly, a 'missing dot in his signature' Ryan, a ton of 1962 'green tints' (including a few Ruths and a Kaline) and other errors from that set and a wide variety of other listed and unlisted variations from the 60's up to 1974. Partially airbrushed logos, bullets appearing and disappearing on team cards, 1969 white letter variations, 1972 green letter variations and the 1967 missing stats cards...and on and on...
A lot of great stuff!!!
To see all the scans, check out this section of my bucket:

Many of these cards are in pretty nice shape, but others definitely run the gamut of conditions. And I do happen to have multiples of some of these cards.
If you're interested in anything, I'm looking for cards off of my need list (below).
If you have nothing off of my need list, I am also very interested in these:
1972 Topps FB high numbers (need these in exmt shape: 271 Warfield AP, 277 Eller AP, 280 Lilly AP, 304 Dale, 308 Morrall, 312 Marsalis, 336 Marshall, 341 Butkus)
1963 Fleer BB (need about 25 more in ex+ or better shape)
1964 Topps (just started upgrading this set, so could use many of the stars in exmt or better shape)
1964 Topps Stand-Ups (need virtually all in nice shape)
1954 Bowman BB (looking for a starter set in ex+ shape)
Plus, I'm always interested in HOF'ers and high numbers in nice shape from the 50's and 60's.
I'm not looking to sell anything at this time. Sorry.
