"Wrong Back" cards - What kind of value/demand?

I ran across some baseball error cards. I'm a football guy so I'm pretty much clueless as to whether or not these cards hold any value:

1988 Topps Basesball Traded

Mark Grace on the front / back shows 67T Billy Masse
David Wells on the front / back shows 4T Roberto Alomar
Robin Ventura on the front / back shows 43T Alfredo Griffin
Roberto Kelly on the front / back shows 8T Floyd Bannister
Roberto Alomar on the front / back shows 128T David Wells
Chris Sabo on the front / back shows 112T Jim Snyder
Tino Martinez on the front / back shows 27T Rick Cerone

Thanks in advance.

  • Player collectors usually pick them up, I know I do. Just don't tout them as "1/1 super rare error cards only 1 made" with a price of $40.

    send a PM to Metalmike. He'll probably be interested
  • Theres a guy on ebay who has a 1971 topps super with Pete Rose on the front,, and Hank Aaron on the back.

    I`d pay a premium price for it,,,, but not the $1500 he`s asking image

    Most wrongbacks from " the boom years" are not hard to find at all. Wrongback traded cards are a bit harder to find imo. I did find 6 1989 Tiffany wrongbacks in the past year on feebay which were rejects from Psa-no holder. The Grace and Sabo's might bring some interest. One Fast Talon on here is the Sabo guy. Barfvader likes misprints but I am not sure if he collects these along with the miscut type cards. I may be interested let me know what you need. Mike

    Did I hear my name??? image

    I would agree with metalmike in that wrong backs from the boom years are not hard to find. I can remember seeing ads in SCD for this stuff in quantity all the time.

    Traded cards are a bit more odd though so interest might be a little higher.

    Although I tend to lean towards miscuts and misprints I have a few wrong backs but don't actively seek them out as much as the other cards I collect.
