I haven't. Could you post scans?

There are numerous variations in the 1991 set, actual corrected mistakes not just printing errors. This is one. One card is correct and pictures Gonzales batting right. The other is a photo of Bill Bean batting left..... who later gained notoriety for " coming out".

cool....i like finding variations....i also found one on the #378 wilson alvarez card......one has an extra line of stats on it.....one ends with 17 games at vancouver.....the other has an additional 7 games at birmingham after the vancouver entry.......i guess i will keep one of each in my binder.....sorry but my scanner isnt working right....i need to go pick up a new one.....any suggestions on a good card scanner?.....

I got my 1991 Topps from a factory set, so I'm guessing that means I got all the corrected versions.

There are at least 30 variations in the 1991 set. Some cards have more than one variation. Some, like the Whiten, hands in or out of the border, are tougher than others

artimus

is there a list of these variations anywhere?......thanks

I would like to see a list as well if possible.

"I got my 1991 Topps from a factory set, so I'm guessing that means I got all the corrected versions."

I broke a 1988 Topps factory set recently and it was pretty mixed up with errors and corrected. It had the Comstock corrected, Murray corrected, McGwire error, Steinback (msp?) error, checklist error.

So while I am sure a factory set is more then likely to have the corrected, I guess that isn't always the case.

The SCD Standard Catalog lists almost all of them. I can send anyone who wants their checklust if you pm me a mailing address.
