1959 variations
Doug---if Ramos gives you a chuckle, maybe this one will too. Check examples of card 316, NL Hitting Stars ( Mays/Ashburn) on e bay. In many of them a close look shows what looks like a scribbled "A" where their arms cross together. This defect shows up often. Printing error that was corrected, or later run defect like Herrer ?
No matter what definition you, me , or Bob L comes up with, there will be gray areas. To me that just makes it fun. People can collect and be happy with whatever motivates them. But, ironically, whether one of these takes off in value or is just an oddity in a Gilkeson publication or a dark secret with the secret order of variation/error collectors, depends on whether Bob L or Beckets or the Registry, or someone recognized in the hobby lists it somewhere.
