1980 Topps Fred Stanley Partial Yellow Name...Or Is It?

This has to be the weirdest partial yellow I have ever seen, not just for Fred but for any others in the set...

Comments

  • Would it even qualify as the partial yellow? I have seen a few before but none look anything like this

    I have seen this type before and yes that is considered name in yellow.
    If you do not believe it, I will buy it from you for the non yellow price.....haha

    Looks like a retro 1958 Pancho Herrera…letters missing.

    The Chicken...14 year mlb career and a WAR of 1. You could stick around for a while in that era with a good glove..

    "partial redless" print flaw (missing a portion of red ink).

    Are they worth more than a typical card?

    They are if you can convince someone to give you more money for them. None of this stuff has set prices. It's whatever the market will bear. There are so many baseball cards to collect. Very few people focus on stuff like this.

    If his first name showed as Lars then it might have the Dick Pole collecting contingent interested?

    Probably not too much but like others have mentioned, it varies wildly and you won't know until you list it. There is no set value on these things. Usually print flaws are low interest unless they are 1) affecting a massively popular player or 2) connected to widely known error from a heavily collected set.

    For example: 1982 Topps Redless cards will have interest because of 1982 Topps Blackless cards. 1990 Topps partial blackless cards have interest due to the popularity of the NNOF Thomas card.

    I was surprised to see this card as I've had the same one in my collection for a long time. Always thought it was a one of a kind. Interesting how the R and X are both missing the exact amount of ink for both cards and how both have that little bit of orange on the baseball....

    That 1981 Topps Larry Cox is part of a four card block recurring print flaw of partially missing red ink on the left side of the 1981 B* sheet, for some reason I don't have a scan of the Ed Figueroa and I'm not about to go looking for it :) .

    That is really cool. I had no idea those existed! Can you tell me more about them, like rarity and all that??? Thanks so much for sharing!

    It's a recurring print flaw that affected at least four cards on the left side of the 1981 Topps B* sheet. They are pretty rare, although I have several of the Cubbage somewhere. I probably only have one of each of Cox, Aviles, and Figueroa.

    That's super cool. Question...is this Cubbage considered the error? It does not have as much red missing as the ones you have pictured, but there is obviously missing red still.

  • The red ink name is nearly completely gone on the Cubbage errors.
