1961 Topps Roger Maris Blank Back

[bigfanNY]

Just to chime in ALR is a great resource for all things rare and topps. A proof esp those that have topps certs from vault or auction sell for more than blank backed cards that came from packs. That said blank backed and wronged back topps from the 50's 60's and early 70's are scarce. A May's blank back should attract attention from player and error collectors if it shows up for sale or in an auction. The others will find buyers as well. Hope this helps

Ben,

Really like the look of your Maris blank back card. Like some have said I wouldn’t have an issue with trimming to normal size since it looks to be hand cut already. I have a few BB cards and they are all regular sized.

I’m not a slabbed card fan so I wouldn’t encase it, but it wouldn’t be a problem if you choose to do so if you like the look or want to sell that way. It may get a few extra bucks listed as authentic and blank backed.

I don’t know if there’s a way to tell if a blank back is an error that was unintentionally put in a pack, a blank backed sheet that was cut or from a discarded scrap. In your example it’s likely it was from a scrap sheet that was cut.
