I have all kinds of cards. T cards, OJ's, pre-war, Topps, Bowman. I find differences, frankly, in all of them. Blurry, crystal clear, washed out color, vibrant color, different colored backs. Some of it is how they survived, sunlight, darkness, basement, attic, box, binder. Some of it is just how these cheaply made pieces of cardboard came from whatever factory or printing press. Some of it is documented, some of it just is what it is, irrespective of the anal retentive, OCD, know it all's. I get torched by a flame thrower every time these things come up in these threads and I point out the reality that is hard, sometimes impossible, to scientifically analyze and then state facts about things that were either given away or so cheap that they were virtually meant to be thrown away. It will probably happen again now for the umpteenth time. Oh well, don't care. As was said in "Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade", "Dr. Jones, it's time to ask yourself what you believe."
