Always wanted one of these and then wondered why. Thought about the full run of 6 but doubt that will happen. Meantime they are just sitting in the SD box
  This one I kept just because it's so hard to find, especially uncancelled. Not overly fond of the set and sold it off, but kept this just in case.

Fleer 1960
This set involves 79 regular cards ( I like it more than Anthony). There are 3 cards "in the set" that have a back numbered # 80 with Martin's name. They are usually hand cut. The Grove is by far the most "common"of the 3...-and is very scarce. ( Anthony's is much nicer than mine). It was a printer error in all cases and many cards were cancelled, with a cut out, like the 89 Fleer FF card. Even the cut outs are highly collectible. Tinker was another affected front. Can not remember the 3d, but those two are extremely scarce

kinda doubt that- it wasn't known for many years, is often found hand cut indicating lack of proper distribution, and has the wrong back. Everything points to error that was pulled.
Plus to the best of my knowledge there was no prize offered, and I've got an issue of TTS showing the cards discovery, sometime around '73.

Redemption
I would also think that if that were the case there would be more out there. Mine looks like it was hand cut with scissors. Also, while they all have the same back, there are 3 fronts and Collins and Tinker are much more scarce than Grove
What was the source of the redemption theory ?. Maybe Bob Lemke and Dave Hornish could weigh in.
