1957 Sherman Error

[clamendo]

I keep seeing the 1957 Sherman card with just the position listed as an error. It's my opinion that these have been airbrushed. How could the entire position/team be missing and then half? I've never seen these surface til fairly recently with different degrees of missing lettering. What is everyone's thoughts on this.

Could it be power erased?

I think so, at least some one mentioned it to me. My error was bought from someone 25 years ago as part of a childhood collection. I am 110% sure it's good as I worked with the guy too. However, the entire position team was missing. You'll see other with a partial lettering etc.
For years thus was a $1 card with the lettering, wouldn't take much to accumulate s bunch and try.

Those are usually really easy to spot because it almost always leaves an indent in the card. Problem is there are a few chemicals that will easily remove ink on a card. There is even a special pen you can buy that does it.
