I tend to collect variant cards, whether the difference is intentional or a print defect or just a recurring difference. Here are two of mine. They look different to me. If others think not, that is certainly not something that sticks within my craw

I have noticed 3 distinct different versions. 1) You can clearly see the bat knob. 2) The rest of the card has good color but the bat knob is barely noticeable. 3) The one with the yellow splotch. Like the one Al has pictured on the left. This last one seems to be by far the rarest of the 3.
