[G1911]

1954 Bowman 49 and 97 both have known true variations, with the names spelled differently on the reverse. Finnin used to carry a big price gap in the Standard Catalogs and Chadnois/Chandnois wasn't listed.

[G1911]

All copies of 1954 Bowman #100 Jack Christiansen have the blue swirl over his head. Pretty much all of the cards between 97 and 128 have minor recurring defects or constant defects involving blue ink.

[G1911]

1954 Bowman #111 Dante Lavelli. Lavelli always has a blue dot in his shoulder (one of the many constant blue issues in 97-128), a small red mark above his uniform number, and another mark in the grass above the "V" of his name. But, the blue dash lines extending from his upper arm through the edge of the border is a recurring print defect. With the defect is less common than the correct card.

[G1911]

The same error on Lavelli reflects as a result on the adjacent card on the sheet, #112 Leon Hart (Bowman sheets at this time were in numerical blocks, though I do not believe they were 32 card sheets as is said to be the case, but 32 block patterns of 8x4 placed onto sheets). Hart, as a 97-128 card, again has constant blue ink problems with a dot on his neck and a blue mark by his ear. He comes with or without the blue dash lines in the border, which intrude into the image as a small white line before the defect disappears.

1954 Bowman #66 Robert Hantla. The two peach dots appear on every card, but the green splotch and multiple small green dots on his shoulder is rare.

[G1911]

1954 Bowman #60 Charley Trippi is normally seen without the green splotch on his sock, but this is recurring. Not as easy as the correct card, but not super tough.

[G1911]

1954 Bowman #6 Joe Perry. Most copies have the black blob on the right side across from his ear, but some do not.
