Wow, I should go through my 61s and see if I have a few just slightly out of register. I Probably have lots of them, it's really common.

I'm still not sure about the green in ball stuff, but the Ebay guy is way off.

Depends on your definition of common. I looked through at least 15,000 by now and have only found 5 that had green in the BB. Any body have better luck than me?

I sold 4 on eBay in the $20-$40 range and still have a #253 Sammy Taylor with some Green in BB left.

It can be found with the entire bottom of the ball in green, or just a speck. And PSA has graded his cards with very little green as a variation. They are scarce but not rare. I have other 61 cards with the same defect, but as far as I know they have only recognized the Fairly. Why in the world they decided to make this mundane print defect a variation is a mystery to me. Maybe the submitter was a big customer.

The ones like the fairly shown in the post right after yours might be hard to find, but the one on Ebay isn't one. It's just bad registration. And that's what's common.
