What is the procedure to get PSA to acknowledge a "new" variation?

[Rich Klein]

That was after Beckett added that variation and I know since I added that card myself back in the day

Does Beckett have a definition they work with, or do they just know one when they see it ? There are several of 61s with that kind of smudge

I'm not there any more but if someone pointed out something like that to us we would have listed those on a case by case basis.

if you want to post the numbers here, I'll take a look at the COMC scanned inventory and see what appears to be significant in terms of variations. There are print cases such as the blobs on the 1971 Jim Nash and Jim Northrup cards which to me are legit printing issues. There is also a black mark under one of Mike Marshall's eye in 1971.

So post or PM me and I'll look and add if appropriate.

This is the old David Rudd trick to follow oneself, but we've even been informed and verified some subtle legit variations on 1988 Donruss. I've got to go back and check Gregg Jefferies (posted on the post-war side of this board)

but it's cool to add material such as that to the hobby knowledge

1962 babe as a boy has a pretty obvious variation as well. in one, in the lettering it looks like a hair splitting the letters.

Hi Guys:

Thanks for all the input, especially Dave's with his saga.

As mentioned I THINK my "argument" should be pretty straight forward and in my mind exactly like the 63 Topps Sticker backs. Two different backs both noted in the SCD Catalog

I will be attending the National. Is there anyone who will be there who would have final say on deciding something like this I could present my case to?

Keep the info coming!

Thanks,

Fred
