If it does exists I'm still trying to figure out why it was corrected so much quicker than the 25 other corrections Topps made in January of 1991. I do have a theory on it but I'll have to do some more research and see if I can come up with information that will support it.
Would love to hear what you find. I know that Ken Liss was the media relations person who released the corrections list to hobby media in 1991 but I can't imagine he has any recollection of this. I'm seriously doubting it exists but if the Mantle "Hangover" card can turn up after 60+ years, anything is possible with Topps.

This is a pretty common recurring print defect. I'm trying to confirm just variations that have been cataloged or circulated on lists for decades but haven't turned up for sale or in most cases, not even a pic online.
