over the past several days i have been mining a large accumulation of 1974 Topps baseball cards which i presume are mostly vending and it's been a lot of fun looking at these things over and over again while i have been building up lots for some of the good folks over in the BST forum.....well, yesterday i stumbled upon something, quite by accident as i was looking through a stack of #646 George Foster cards and checking condition, the last one i looked at turned out to be this:

Front of card #646 George Foster:

Back of card #505 Bill Buckner:

i did a double take assuming two cards had been wedged into the holder, but nope, there it was, a way-cool 1974 Topps Baseball Wrongback......not too bad a shape either, although it's off-centered and has an oil spot on the right lower corner of the border, but this is what it's all about in collecting.......just finding something that you don't see very often, and it just feels cool.

i know some of you love to collect these goofs and foul-ups and i enjoy getting to be one of you and i like the exclusivity i get to experience in finding these special rare items......unless, of course 50 collectors jump in to post their George Foster Wrongbacksimage ......anyways, just thought i'd share.
