![]() ![]() ![]() Here's description from scd Whether through faulty pre-production work or the simple fact that the black ink may have run dry during printing, exactly half of the 1982 Topps cards can be found in a “blackless” version. All cards on the set’s A, B and C press sheets can be found blackless. On regular player’s cards the lack of black printing is most obvious in the absence of the facsimile autograph on front. The thin black pinstripe around the player photo is also missing on those cards. On cards in which the position was supposed to be printed in black, it will be missing on these variations. All-Star cards affected by this error will be missing the player’s name. It is estimated fewer than 100 of each “blackless” card were released. Originally cards from the A and B sheets were found in metro New York, while the C cards turned up most often in the Midwest. Cards from the C sheet are much scarcer than those from the A and B sheets, although limited collector demand for full sets has kept prices in relative parity. |
