Just picked these up today.
1972 Topps Mis Prints.jpg

I really like the 72 set for color and there are some great off registration issues in that set

John the Herrera on the left is a favorite of mine

[toppcat]

That Herrera on the left-it feels like that's when the blip occurred that blocked the end of his last name for the rest of that print run.

Yep the one on the left is way cooler than the other one.

Found these today looking through boxes. A ink smudge over the FR in his name. The ink smear is a little darker in hand.

[jjbond]

Is it a print variation if they forgot to do the print?

What is the name of the store? If they have ‘60’s commons I need to check them out for 1966 and 1969 miscuts.

[G1911]

Love that Hornsby miscut back, nice one.

[deweyinthehall]

Wow - 4 cards from 1 miscut...it's like a dream come true!

[Elberson]

Actually, I think we could identify which one it is. Off memory, like most years, the 1961 checklist variations came from a checklist being printed in 2 series. Since you can see the cards it was adjacent to like Turk Lown, it is whichever variation was issued with the same series Turk Lown was in.

Very good! It is the back of the #437 6th Series Checklist that was printed on the 5th Series Slits, Turk Lown and Reno Bertoia are 5th Series cards.

I figured you would know off the top which sheet it was

I checked my 1961 notes and my list doesn't have which version of the checklist (440 Luis with more of umpires legs vs. 440 Louis with less of umpires legs visible) was with which series.

The only 5th series sheet image I have is this old one from a long ago Leland's auction that's not big enough to make it out. The card in column B, rows 3 and 10.

Do you have which one it is from your sheet project?

[G1911]

Solved I think, it's 440 Luis with more of umpires legs showing.

Kind of reminds me of the "293" Golden card....image courtesy of Mr. Lemke. Likely both were caused by something on the printing plate.

[ALR-bishop]

Joe---any idea if the line appears on both the yellow and white versions of the card ? In checking my set I have only the defective 61 Law. How common is it ?

[Elberson]

I have 3 laws but all have the missing spot, so now I need regular verssion

Hi Al, great follow-up question. I have never seen a white version with the line, only yellow. I would not consider it too difficult as it seems to be about 50:1 ration based on my most recent searches. There’s quite a few available now. Another question I just thought would be which card is above it on the sheet. It likely has a black line on it as well.

1962 #504 Eddie Bressoud. Similar to the 69 Moses I just posted, there’s a black dash in the border, however, unlike Moses, this one is on the back. This one is in my collection, I just stumbled upon it when sorting. I’ve looked at about 150 other examples in different places and haven’t found another. I thought maybe it was a stray ink pen but it isn’t.

Sparky Lyle 1971 Topps 649: double-black ink back makes the image appear really menacing. Recurring print defect.

I have been looking for the Aurelio Rodriguez version of the 10 card uncut sheet ever since I received the pink 10 card uncut set. Last week #3 came up for sale and it is now in my collection. Here are all three versions (portions of anyway) of the 10 card uncut Washington Senators D.C. Traffic Safety set. The 9 other cards are all the same, it is just Dave Nelson and Aurelio Rodriguez that are variations of this set. Nelson: pink and yellow, Rodriguez: yellow.

WOOT! A complete 'run'. And I have the 71 set too.

Cheers,

Butch

Here are the cereal box version at top and company sent version at the bottom. I also have Maris company issue and it says the same thing. The box version is much thicker carboard than the company thin issue.

Sliphorn, The card you show without the lines between the stats is NOT the company version of the 61 Post Mantle card

It IS the box version on top but the bottom version you show above is the card that was inserted into an issue of Life Magazine along with the Maris card.

Below is a company card. Issued on a perforated sheet of 10 cards. Note the perfs/chads on three sides of the card

1966 Topps 209. This white mark above the team banner is recurring on a minority of cards, but not tough.

[G1911]

1966 Topps 35 Jim Hunter. Catfish can be found with this peachy splotch covering part of his arm and the man in the background. It is recurring, I have seen a couple, but I believe it is tough to find.
