    Pretty cool! I find it wierd but PSA won't grade that. I just got back a blank back that BVG grade 8.5 and it had a good chance at a PSA 9, but they called it a factory misprint and did not grade it.
    EAMUS CATULI!

  • I would call it a Joe Dobson error card, not a Whitey Ford error card. I mean Dobson's name and picture are on the front. The only reason he's saying it is a Whitey Ford error is because it's worth more than the Dobson card.

    It's not that uncommon. I've seen of lot of '41 Playballs and '48 Leafs like that, many graded. And a lot of '49 Bowmans had double struck backs, not uncommon to find full 36 card sheets of those. If you've printed one side of the sheet and accidentally stack it for the printing of the back side the wrong way up it happens. IMO there shouldn't be a premium for it, it's actually much less desirable that a correct card of the same grade.
    I'd call it a Joe Dobson error as well.

    Always looking for Topps Salesman Samples, pre '51 unopened packs, E90-2, E91a, N690 Kalamazoo Bats, and T204 Square Frame Ramly's

    I wasn't getting too technical with WHO's error card it was....Dobson/Ford...whatever...just wanted to share something that you dont see everyday. Some years and issues much more common than others...I havent seen many 51 Bowmans.
