For as long as I can remember I've been on the lookout for a transitional 'missing link' variation that might fit in between the 1973 Topps Al Kaline 'bandage on forehead' card and the normal version of this card, where the bandage has been completely airbrushed away and his forehead is clear of anything relevant. I always figured there must be something out there. Well, today I found something very, very interesting indeed. Check out the second picture in this progression. To me it clearly shows some light remnants of that pesky Band Aid. Granted, this discovery is not exactly equal to Howard Carter finding King Tut's tomb, but it's pretty cool nonetheless, and I thought some of my fellow variation nuts would enjoy seeing it.
