Hi everyone! I'm new around here. And really hoping to get some help with a particular card I just came across. I can't find a comp for it, and I'm really just looking to get more information about it.
My father-in-law was raised in Venezuela, and recently asked me to take a look at his small baseball card collection, which includes Topps 1962, 64, 66 and 68 Venezuela cards. There's some really great ones in there if you want to chat about those, but the card that has stopped me in my tracks is from the Topps Venezuela 1968 set. It is basically two cards in one, and is confounding to me. The face of the card says "Yaz Smashes Two Homers"... this card's corresponding number is supposed to be #152 in the set, but when I turn the card over, it shows #107 and the checklist that corresponds to the Juan Marichal checklist card. In short, it's the face of #152 and the back of #107. Has anyone here seen or heard of any kind of misprint or error like this in this particular set/series? I'd love to know if this is something that might be considered an error, if it's one-of-a-kind, or even if it was a pretty common misprint during those days. Thanks for any help or guidance you may be able to provide. for reference: |

This is actually a known error.
I believe the error is actually the front. I don't think the yaz #152 exists in the '68 Venezuelan set as its own card, only as the error. Don't quote me though! Edit: I'm wrong the card #152 of Carl with the correct back is a thing. Seems to actually be rarer than the error which is interesting. Also, Nice first post! https://www.ebay.com/itm/39488597968...mis&media=COPY

I was going to say that unless the variation is checklisted that PSA won't grade it, but they do. However, they should really have two different registry slots for this card, since the card exists as a full checklist. ![]()

Went for cheap, I guess. Would be worth a bunch more if PSA slabs it and adds those slots to the 1968 Topps Venezuela(n) registry set.

Not much quality production in any of the Vene sets, lol. I have some lovely print errors from Vene's in my collection.
If the annoying seller and prior member Toppsaholic wasn't constantly overpaying on snipes for errors when I am bidding I would have more, lol. Then they join his error eBay museum at insane prices to live on forever.

Wow! This was all incredibly helpful and quite interesting. I knew I had come to the right place! I really appreciate you all.
If I have any other questions or come across anything else really interesting, I'll let you all know. As my original post said, I'm going through my father-in-law's cards, mostly from 1962-68 - all of them from the Venezuela sets. Still trying to figure out what, exactly, he wants to do with them. And trying not to get scammed in the process! |
