I'm essentially a set collector. Anyhow, after collecting all sorts of cards for 37 years, I've picked up quite a number of printer's errors (scraps). Most of them are BOWMAN's and LEAF's....but, also from other sets dating back to 1888. TED Z

My Dad worked at the Ford car assembly factory in Mahwah, NJ 1955-1980. About 1976 he brought home 2 uncut sheets of Topps cards that were used as packing for some car parts. The sheets were printed, then turned 180 degrees and printed again. Then cut. I guess to test the presses and cutting before production. Where are they now? Well, I figured they were garbage, and tossed them out. Sorry- nothing to show, just a story to tell.

Too bad, I'd love to see that. Very interesting story though, I would never suspect Topps scraps would end up in such a place.

Back then no one would bother wanting to collect this. Heck-even this week I received a truckload of boxes to package my items-I work in manufacturing- and as "slip sheets" I got rejected Elios Pizza boxes on all 4 sides of the pallet, just to protect my boxes.
