Hi,
The Phillies logo is not the only one that has variations in this set. So far I've seen the Reds, Cubs, Cardinals and Royals logo with easy-to-see variations. Others seem to have slight changes - Twins, Tigers, others? Last edited by runbrett; 06-14-2013 at 11:09 AM. |

So, of the three Dodgers in the set, Lopes, Monday, and Rau can someone please summarize the variations they are aware of besides the .577 and .625 pitching pct. on the Rau or the 107 and 197 runs variations on the Monday? Which have a copyright variation? Thanks.
By the way, I'm still looking for a clean (not cracked) .577 Rau of anyone has one they want to sell or trade for, thanks.

For Dodgers I have seen the following. I am still deciding if I should collect the thick, gray cards and the thin, brighter cards separately. Does anyone know the story of how these print runs are so different and which one is the brighter, thinner card stock?
Lopes - Reg. Mark right of scarf and right of team logo. Rau .577. Reg mark in scarf and not right of team logo. Rau .625. Reg mark not near Tony and not near team logo. Monday 107. Reg mark not near Tony and not near team logo. Monday 107. Reg mark not near Tony and right of team logo. Monday 197. Reg mark in scarf and not near team logo. |

Thanks for that list.
As far as the different card stock thickness, I would surmise that the thinner stock came as a perforated mail in set and the thicker stock was from the packaged material inserted into cereal boxes. Just a guess, I don't know if this particular year even had the mail in option but if they did then it could be like the early 80's topps team leader sheets, they were made from a thinner stock than the regular issued cards.

I'll have to dig my mail in set out sometime. I'm not sure if it's 79.
I don't recall it coming on thinner stock, but I think that was the year it came as 4 card panels. Die cut, and they generally fell apart. Mine is still in the shipping box, I just have to find it. I got send away sets a few times. Steve B |

I've read that there were two different print runs of the factory set that helped set up these variations. The two or three factory sets that I opened all have the thicker cards on the more yellowed card stock. I've seen unopened packs on the thinner stock.
I will search to see if I have any unopened packs with the thicker, more yellow stock. |
