Being a printing error/variation collector for the past 20 years, especially with the explosion of information through eBay and chatboards, I was never interested in blank backs, wrong backs, or severe miscuts. It is only this recent interest in recreating vintage sheets such as the 1966 Topps high numbers that I became interested in wrong backs and severe miscuts off of certain sheets because those cards contain evidence of where they were placed on the sheet and which cards they were next to. If I find one on eBay, COMC, or Dean’s that is so obvious then I won’t even bother buying them, I will just get a scan. I will buy the ones that have just slivers of another card if I can get them cheap and then I try to make better scans and try to figure out which card it is.
