1958 Topps Kaline with yellow name???

[LEIDEMEG]

Figure this one out guys. Again, I have seen a ton of Kaline yellow name over the years. The fact that the card on eBay has not only the yellow name of Kaline but the team name in yellow is the part in question. To then do a search and find an additional PSA 8.5 Kaline with yellow name and yellow team name is what we are trying to figure out. It doesn't appear either card was altered nor was any mention made of the rarity. So, is it an additional variation that has never been noticed in 56 years. Does anyone else have another example in their collection?

Checked mine last night. Yellow name w/ white team, so nothing more to add to this conversation.

Yellow name white team.

Ok guys,since I found the variation after 56 years..lol...who was the lucky winner since it was obviously a member of our forum. Also to the winner, are you going to try and get the card re-graded with the variation mentioned? George

As much as I would l ok ve to have it, it wasn't me. I came up significantly short.

FYI, there have been several sold over the last few years., and not at the inflated price this one went for.

Do you have links or pics of kaline's with the tigers team in yellow you reference that you could post. I think at this point it is safe to say that this is an additional variation to the normal Kaline with yellow name. I wonder if anyone has seen an additional yellow variation outside of the norm.

No links right now.

I went through a bunch of previous sales of the kaline yl on vintagecardprices.com and found several of the double yellow variation graded by psa, bvg, and if I remember correctly sgc as well.
