From cello packs, not wax.........they are real and they are pack fresh. Very valuable in my mind.

Wow, that's a nice looking parrallellagram. May not be vintage, but definitely miscut.

I cannot believe that Gwynn Rookie MC !!!!! Wow. $15.00 for a BIN, what a bargain. I am guessing the same Topps manager of quality control in the cutting dept. was on still board in 1983, just as he was when he was "interning" in 1955 with my AA's.

Holy Crap some of those are bad! It's really cool that some of you guys have the adjacent cards and can see the whole deal. +1 for the parallelogram cards too, and the Broncos Georgeo Goddeske should have come with 3D specs
It's cool on a common, but kind to hard to see on the star power cards

Thanks for sharing this stuff

I actually really like bad miscuts as well. That 1972 Mets rookies card is a thing of beauty. Seeing 2 cards in a miscut is cool, but parts of 3 cards on one card is downright amazing.

I've only got a couple to show. No longer own the Aaron RC:

I see the same Topps QC Mgr. worked on many sets in the 50's, 60's, mostly the 70's and into the 80's. All very cool.

Wow, I've never seen so many in one place! Barfvader and Elemenopeo, do you collect them, or do you just save the scans?

Here's the worst one I have lying around--no comparison to the ones above.

I collect them. A search of my posts would show a large portion of what I have (Many have been gifts from the great CU board members).

My current list shows that I have

3 Autographed Miscuts
535 Miscut on front and or back (including some non sports/Charlie's Angels and Moonraker)
139 Bad cuts (extreme diamond cuts/pieces of cards straight from the pack/etc)
19 Wrongbacks
28 Blank backs
29 Missing foil/to much ink/massive creasing and damage caused by the machines at the factory
