Very strange.... W575-1 Kelly that just ended 3 seconds ago ???

Interesting card Todd. It appears that the E121 series of 80 with the "eighty of the" ending on the first line is where a good chunk of the printing differences seem to be occurring on the fronts. I believe I have a W501 Adams that has a letter in the team name that has 'dropped' down...maybe I can scan it for our amusement.

And Rhett I also discovered I have two W575 Wood cards that have different font sizes, and will scan them later. It is interesting to note that one of these two cards does not have that vertical print line that seems to appear on every other Wood E121W575 card I have seen.

Here is that funky W501 of Adams with the dropped-down and bold "U" (perhaps it sank because of all the extra ink used). There is just enough of the top border to make out a portion of the 'G-4-22' and thus ascertain that this is a W501 card. I have not seen other W501 Adams cards so don't know if this is how they are all printed or not.

I have also included scans of the W575 Woods cards with the different font sizes as a counterpoint to Rhett's E121 examples. As mentioned in previous post the one card doesn't have that vertical print line...are there other Woods E121 cards, etc. out there without that line?

Brian, here is my W575-1 Joe Wood I have, notice how much closer the name is on mine to the photo portion--the possibilities are endless with these.
