1992 Donruss missing red ink on back?
Can't seem to find out anything about them? Does anyone have any w/ red ink missing on back?
I have 4 different cards, all in the high 300's. Are they rare?? Here are 2 of them:

Yes, rare for sure. But they are print flaws and probably not desirable to most outside of the player collectors for the guys you have. Cool cards!

Probably not related, but I wonder if there's a connection between these and the David Wells variation where on one version "CAREER HIGHLIGHTS" is printed in black rather than the correct red.
Like I say, probably not because the Wells card isn't simply missing that red type, it is actually replaced with black. |

When missing yellow and/or red colors are observed, many times sun fading is involved.

If pack pulled and real they have little value unless it is a super star player. Best bet is to put them on eBay with an outrageous price and see if someone bites. |

Appreciate all comments!
I am 99.9% certain these cards have never seen sunshine and came directly from packs to my storage. Side by side w/ a normal card, there is no evidence of sun fading in any way, to me!

Cool find.
What are the other 2 cards? |

The black seems darker on the missing ink cards. I don't know if that means anything.

Everything on the back seems just a bit lighter on the redless cards--notice the blue is weaker also!

I would offer a whopping $2 for anyone of them shipped. That is just the card put in a PWE with no frills.

Several years ago, here or possible on the CU forums, someone had posted a bunch of 1992 Donruss proof cards, which had different write-ups and text orientation and missing colors, I believe. Very interesting stuff. I can't seem to locate the thread but this reminds me a bit of these, especially the David Wells variation type.

The ones posted are probably missing yellow too.
