Thumbing through my 63 Topps set I noticed my #68 Friendly Foes had a large yellow ink blob...so I looked through ebay and other sites and pored through a bunch of cards and did find ONE other with the same blob...kinda cool to see a matching card. So I assume there are others out there.

Here is my card -



Here is the card I found on ebay with the same ink markings...




Cool card regardless...thought I'd share...

Nice find John, haven't seen that one before, thank you for sharing.

Thanks Larry and great cards Greg. They were pretty sloppy with the yellow ink there!

Al...did you already know about this one? Cool to see another example...

I looked to see what I had after your post. No recall when I picked it up

This one (yellow blob) has probably been mentioned before (recurring), but I had one, so there.

Print variation (I think). Definitely crease variation 😂

There is a term used for that with comic books that I can't remember. That card sat in a pile of other cards like that for a long period of time, most of the card was protected by whatever card was on top of it but the parts of the card with the discoloration were sticking out of the pile exposed to the elements but not sunlight. ETA, it finally came to me, it's called a dust shadow.
