That card was on the right edge of the sheet and undoubtedly the black area was a printers mark or a helping guide on sheet cutting, it was probably eliminated after someone noticed it showing up on the card in the early printings. A couple of other cards that had a similar problem that were later corrected with the outer sheet mark removed were 1960 Topps Ernie Banks and 1964 Topps Eddie Mathews.

Thanks for posting the 74 sheet. Is the Banks variation you are referring to where there is writing on the bottom of the card?

[Cliff Bowman]

Yes, the 1960 Ernie Banks has ‘SECTION II’ on the edge of the card and is fairly common, the 1964 Eddie Mathews has a large blue bar on the edge of the card. The Mathews must have been caught early and is extremely rare, I have only ever seen two of them, one is on eBay for $900 and the other is owned by a very large fish member here. ETA: correction, I should have said a very large underwater mammal .

Picked up this super rare print variation from a fellow member. The reoccurring print error is the faint yellow line that goes from the top to bottom of the card. I added the black line, the yellow line is a little to the left of it. These don't carry a premium but are a super rare known reoccurring print error on a very famous card.

Picked up this Jennings 60 Fleer with Wheat on the back.

Neat card Kenny, too bad it was not another # 80 Martin back

Anyone know how common it is finding “SECTION 1” on a 1961 Topps card?

Cool mis-cut. I looked at about 80 of them and found 2 with it on them. Yours has way more showing than those 2.

Hi Guys:

I am not much into variations, and hope this has not been mentioned before, but noted this Kaline going through my 60 Topps set.

After looking at others on ebay it appears the card with the two red lines in the upper left corner are harder to find than those without See:

above with the red lines

and

without red lines

The print lines on the 1960 Topps Kaline have been discussed here before, it can also be found on the 1960 Topps cards of Ernie Banks and Bobby Richardson.

I own two of them, having just picked one up on eBay. They are out there.

I've been collecting errors and variations from the 1990 Topps set for the past 7 years or so. Thought I'd share them here.

Thanks for sharing West
