Show...me...your print variations!

While I am sorting cards and listing variation dupes I am acquiring, I am thinking maybe we could be doing some trading of variations.
Anyone interested, check out my webpage tradables and look for the variations I have been listing.
I have a bunch and more to come in coming weeks.

Like the 72 Jerry McNertney card with varying degrees of finger prints showing, I came across another similar card. This time it is the 71 Topps 32 Jerry DaVanon card. One copy I have (the left) has a very obvious hand/thumb print along the left edge while a second copy (right) has a less obvious print appearing. The red line that appears on Jerry's left shoulder is also recurring...limited, but not as limited as the cards with the print/partial print. A two-for-one print variation card.

Awesome find Larry, I will have to get one for my fingerprint card collection. I am up to 6 or 7 different ones now.

Surely there is a market opportunity here for some guy to start making finger print variants at home.

Thank you Ben....what are the different ones you have....I seem to remember a 63 McCovey???

Found this one a while back, but never found a match....it looks like Joe forgot to shave the lower left half his face in this print variant:

I was thinking last night there should be a tv show where a guy looking through his cards notices a finger print on one, like the McNertney or Da Vanon , and he knows a guy in law enforcement and for grins asks him to run the print and it turns out to be a match for a known serial killer who has been active for years. And then.......

It is a 61 Topps McCovey. I have the 3 different McNertey cards plus 2 more someplace. One is a Goudey I picked up from an auction in the BST section and the other one is in the junk era, no idea who though. I also bought it from a fellow member.

Correct pose, wrong year on the McCovey....I have only two finger print variations of the McNertney plus the "clean" version, do you have a third finger print version?

Yes I have very light, medium, and really nice versions of the fingerprint on the McNertney. Here is a pic I found on my computer of all 3. I have been drastically reducing my collection so I can't find anything.
