I found one going through my 1972 Topps set: #335 Bill Hands is usually but not always found with a cluster of small marks that look like ink stains on the bare part of his right arm and his cap.

Looking through COMC listings, only 5 of the 45 examples for sale do not have the marks. Both buybacks listed do not have it, which may or may not suggest that Topps is aware of this.

There is also a squiggle like a sideways six to the right of his cap and a blotch above it which seem to be constants.

Good one John. I need a "regular" one

1965 topps 405 roseboro…….does anyone know if this top boarder was fixed?or the story behind it?

[Cliff Bowman]

I knew about the similar recurring 1965 Johnny Podres but not Roseboro. Isn't there another uncorrected one like Roseboro?

[G1911]

I don't think Roseboro was fixed, all of my copies have had the wrong top stripe.

Never noticed it before but my Roseboro has the same border defect. I have one of the Podres pinkish top borders, but not sure if it was discussed here in the variants thread or I saw it someplace else

In looking at my set I had forgotten how many recurring print defects there were in it

Never fixed

Maybe the odd border just above his head was a premonition of August 22, 1965

The seller Elberson mention above, Barry ( Isakur), only sells variations/variants/ recurring print defects. I always go through his many listings looking for anything I don’t have. Most can be found on line at a cheaper price but I have bought several items from him and have found him a dependable seller
