1956 Topps Variation Cards - How many are there?

NeilDowney

Hi Guys, Ever since I have completed my 1956 Topps Basic set, I have been working on the 1956 Topps Variation Cards. I've been lucky enough to get a few more lately in my effort to also complete the Master set (I need 5 more). I am well aware of the 12 checklist variation cards. However, are there any others that PSA doesn't list in the master set? I've heard that maybe the Ted Williams has a variation but is it a true variation? Are there any others? Any info would be nice. Neil

Here is some info on the Williams "variation" as well as other 1956 variations:

Thanks for the info Sinibob. This is what that link says :
1956 Topps: #1 to 180 with white or gray backs, six team cards with 3 front variations (and 2 more back variations due to the gray/white backs)
1956 Topps: Also according to Gilkeson there are a number of cards with color line variations on the front. Ted Williams comes with no line over his name or a yellow, green, blue, or red line. Bessent has no line over team name or a red line. Wynn and Ford have no lines or yellow or red lines.

I have been trying to collect #1-#100 all in white back (including the variations). My Bessent, Wynn and Ford cards are all "no color line" version. However, my Williams is a "green line" version. I'd be interested in seeing a scan of the other versions of these four cards if anyone has any of them. Neil
