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

So it's probably unnecessary to do this, huh? Sounds good to me.

That is kind of what I was thinking......I have used his list for 6+ years and it has been an incredible resource.

So are we switching the effort to see if anything in our sections is not on Richards list, and then providing him that shorter list for possible incorporation into his ?

Can't say with 100% certainty that each variation from this thread is on his site, but over the years Richard has done an impeccable job aligning his site with what he has seen posted on this board. Obviously he does not keep up with the later 1970s cards, so any post 1975 cards in this thread won't be included. However, the vast majority of cards mentioned in this thread are pre 1975 so they will likely appear on his list. Over the years, I have posted some one off print variations in the thread and they appear on his list(in red as he does not have one yet).

For me the variations can be a fun addition in collecting. For the most
part I don't collect them but you can always pull out a box and see what
you can find.

This morning I grabbed a random box and a few cards in I found this
88 Topps Randy St. Claire variation. The letters extend down into his
cap (bottom right card). I haven't checked to see if it's a listed or even a
recurring variation.

Not a print defect, IMO, just a registration issue with the black plate. You can see the black line at the bottom is shifted down as well so there's a gap between it and the green border.

Yeah I see what you mean John. How about this one.

Yellow Fisheye in the bottom left corner? If it's a recurring print defect, it's worth listing. Most fisheyes are just one-off printing defects. This thread is more about recurring print defects seen on multiples of the same card.

I know these should be in the post 80's section but I saw there were
already quite a few post 80's cards posted in this thread.
