Topps definitely puts deliberate variations to increase sales. for the past 4 or 5 years at least about 20 Photo variations in each series Plus those in update series. I am putting together a 2012 Master set and having fun doing it in fact added a card last week a SSP Pujols BGS 9.5. And in 2007 the Jeter/Bush error was not corrected until the factory set so this is SOP for Topps these days. Good catch..

Well, they do put in "error" cards as an homage to errors of the past in Archives and Heritage, but not in the Topps flagship set. This one may have just slipped past them through most of production, and then they made the correction quietly. If they wanted to drive sales of the boxed set (which most people don't even open), they would have put it out there that there was a corrected card.

Sports Collectors Daily mentioned this card on their Facebook page, and I submitted a request for COMC to note that it is the error version (they only have three) and that the corrected version may get mailed in.

Has anyone seen the Patrick Corbin from the team sets to know which player is pictured?

I realize it's different numbering but it could also be an error card.

I picked up a handful of the team set Corbins and they also picture Nuno, not Corbin.

I can also say that finding a correct Corbin version has been difficult as I have only been able to purchase one copy and I had to buy a team set that someone was selling from a broken-up factory set.

Anyone know what the factory only parallel of Corbin looks like (who's pictured)?

darkhorse9.......what did the box look like from the factory set you purchased that had the corrected Corbin card?


Also, everyone can read what I've found out so far about this card here (https://sportscardreference.wordpres...ed-variations/).


Thanks to darkhorse9 for bringing this to our attention.

My factory box included the rookie pose variation set.

If you are referring to the #/179, it is the error. I have 10/179. No pictures, but I am sure I can get one if you need it.
