I had a feeling you would chime in on this one.

It is somewhat puzzling that someone as astute a scout as Manager Mack was, that he didn't forsee the potential in Joe Jackson.

But we know that Connie Mack preferred College educated players, so Joe Jax did not fit in with the A's....so, he was expendable.

Here are a few errors. They are all my favorites

Too bad one of the strikes wasn't blue. Shown many times.

I have always liked a couple of typographical error cards in my collection. The E220 National Caramel card of Jim Bagby has his name spelled Bagbyk, which certainly is different from the typical spelling mistake...not sure how this one got past quality control.

The other two cards pictured are Zeenuts of George Wisterzil. I like the fact that he had four Zeenuts issued (1918, 1919, 1920 and 1922), and his name is spelled three different ways--Wisterzill, Westerzil, and Westersil--none of which are correct.

My favorite is this T206 Red Kleinow missing the red ink.

[E93]

Some E93 missing color variations.

Leon- what's the story behind those two E100's missing all their colors? They're very unusual and I'm not sure what they are.

Brian, I believe that the spelling Westerzil is correct. I have four different sources from his Wichita days that all spell it this way. I didn't include a program that spells it this way too.

Not to be a wet blanket, but aren't miscut or cards with color differentiation not considered an ERROR?

The original intent of this thread (starting with my MAGIE & BRIS LORD/Magee cards) is exactly as you suggest.....true ERROR's.
However, so far, most posts here are of ''printing process flaws". Not designs mistakes.

And, that's all fine, too.
