The 1980 Topps U L Washington yellow name card usually sells for $20 to $30 when it shows up on eBay, the 1980 Topps yellow names Fred Stanley, John Wathan, and Steve Braun go for much more because they are more recognized in the hobby. They are recurring printing flaws, not variations. For whatever reason there was a printing problem on a few of the 1980 E* and F* sheets where the red ink ran low and affected the top horizontal rows on both sheets. The cards affected were Fred Stanley, John Wathan, and Junior Kennedy, which were the last three cards on the top row of the E* sheet, and Tom Poquette, Dave Rader, Reggie Cleveland, Steve Braun, Sammy Stewart, Rafael Landestoy, Junior Moore, Will McEnaney, Harry Chappas, and U L Washington on the top row of the F* sheet. The eleventh card on the top row of the F* sheet, Dwayne Murphy, was not affected because it has no red ink.
