That would be his shadow.


Is the left card really that dark blue? I don't think I've seen that sort of color on a 72. Pretty neat if it is.

He means the arcing line that starts on the left border of the photo and runs through his right wrist into his glove. It should be easier to see in this scan.

No, it's not his shadow. What are you talking about????

Here's a closeup…

Ah ok, that wasn't visible at all in the two original scans.

1966 Topps #202 Clay Dalrymple with a "pie face", I've only seen three of them since I found out about it a few years ago.

Notice the varieties of yellow paint on these. It is weird that they should be so different. The small arrows point out the vagaries.

The 1966 Topps #73 Jerry Zimmerman can be found with a "green streak" and breaks in the border in the lower left corner. I have seen at least four different versions with varying degrees of the size of the green streak and the border breaks. John Tsitouris was to the left of it on the printing sheet and can be found with a border break.

Another Edwards with a red mark, and another Stinnet with more whites stuff. And Pepper with a green mark over auto
