Judge Dred (Fred)Thanks for the input.
Alas, a reason (and a good one at that) that even I can understand. People collect these error cards because there is a tie to the production of the cards and the results of the process which, in some cases, yielded a few unusual cards. I can understand that.
Those T and E cards can be very tough if you try to collect all the different variations and subtle differences. I'm happy that my affliction with the hobby is a little different. I'll have to check through my T's and E's to see what odd balls I might have.
I collect because I love baseball history and the characters that reside between the pages of the books which tell the story of the game and the oddball people and superstars that play(ed) the game.
Yes, I like odd ball cards but I like the oddities that are shown on the card, not so much the process that brought the card to life (although the process sounds like it's interesting in the older cards).
Sorry about hijacking the thread but the feedback received is worth any rebuke coming my way.
