1957 Error Cards
These likely were parts of three-card salesman samples. The correct versions are on the top left of the two sample cards and the error right under it. The two right versions of each are the correct # and info versions from the correct cards. The ones at the bottom are the cartoon that is also used on the errors. Notice that the error cartoons do not have all of the red ink. The cartoon on the correct Whitey Ford has the answer on two lines only, while the error card above it uses three lines with a hyphen. I did a lot of research using COMC to find the Billy Martin cartoon that was used in the DeMaestri error card. I believe the sample cards had two of these on either side of a third player who had the commercial on the back, as is seen on the Frank Robinson card back.
Notice on the closeup of the cartoons, that there is some difference in the colors as well as sentence structure on one. Last edited by Sliphorn; 10-25-2020 at 01:19 PM.

The #37 that was recently sold on eBay (Early Wynn front, Don Drysdale back, Frank Torre card #) was one I gave the seller the identification of being a salesman sample in a Facebook group. Sold for $150 as a BIN/BO. I was predicting a sale price closer to $50.

Here's an odd one that is quite easy to find.
The 1972 Series 6 checklist can be found with a pair of smudgy dark areas interfering with the names near the bottom. They are usually quite similarly placed across multiple cards, but there is some variation to where they appear (I believe). s-l1600-14.jpgs-l1600-13.jpgs-l1600-5.jpg

This card has two version; copyright left or copyright center left on back. In checking those two in my set the defect Darren highlights is on my center left card. Does it appear on both versions or just that one ?

1972 checklist
Perhaps one version of the checklist is from series 5 printing and the other from the series 6 printing
