A little more info for those (like me) who have no clue? Scans would also be great.

Oh crap. I was down to 2 cards needed, now I'm back up to 3.

If this was clearly omitted from the Polar Bear back, then I would agree this is a "back variation".

Anyone have a lower condition Doc White with Polar Bear back they would like to sell me?

I've run into the similar situation with the t206 Owen Wilson having two noticeably different red swirls in the background, and a few weeks back noticed that the variation occurred within the same back... That I'd consider a variation, although most just ignore it.

Normally, If the DOC variations do not occur within the same back, then I'd just consider it the PB version. That being said, there's no reason that the quotes should've been removed for only the PB version, and since the info on the back is as equally important as anything on the front regardless of brand, then to an extent, I can fully understand the thought behind it being a variation, since there is a major change in the card's design, aside from just the branding.

Basically, for someone putting together a PB set, there is no variation. But for anyone putting together a master set based on different card designs(not taking brands into consideration), then I'd say there is a variation..

There is absolutely NO difference between this and the Matty Cycle other than ones a HOF'er and the other isn't. Why would we not recognize this for the set??

There are only two possible ways that one can catalog a "master set".

You can catalog every possible front/back combo of every card. In this case, this card would be listed separately as "Doc White, Polar Bear". The quote marks are irrelevant.

..or..

You can catalog every different design, regardless of the ad back. In this case this card would still be listed separately as "Doc White, no quotes". The ad back is irrelevant.

Either way, this card (and all other similar variations) would be catalogued separately. Some people apparently have an issue with the term, "variation". Okay...call it whatever you like...but if you are listing a master set, I see no logical argument for how this card could not be listed separately.

Besides your initial post stating "Don't need your reasoning", this was discussed previously in length 2 years ago.
