My list also has:
34 Terwilliger also has cropping variations of the logo or changes to the very top of it (I think 3 in total). I did not know he outran a tank!
137 - I believe there are 5 (?) with the 'extra' being that the "in '53" version comes with the top of the 5 damaged, or actually fully complete.
145 Valo has a "280" or ".280" batting average, that I think somebody found in this thread. It's an obstruction blocking a small area of the print, rather than a correction made to the type.
