Does all the 94 Topps have these varations? JacksonCoupage has these on Ebay so
I am sure he probably knows but thought I would share them with other player collectors.

Just wondering if Griffey has these front variations and now you got me wondering if he has a
back variation.

I have seen brett and bonds both horizontal and vertical.
the samples were stuck in 1993 factory sets -- 3 at a time .
Ill scan the Brett's if I can find both of them tonight
Topps White Out (silver) letters Alex Gordon
80 Topps Greg Pryor “No Name"
90 ProSet Dexter Manley error
90 Topps Jeff King Yellow back
1958 Topps Pancho Herrera (no“a”)
81 Topps Art Howe (black smear above hat)
91 D A. Hawkins BC-12 “Pitcher”
One version of each of the cards (listed in an above post) came from the 1993 factory sets. The second version, I believe, was a dealer-issued set, but again I am not sure - I do know that the factory-issued ones are easier to find. One set has a rounder, normal Topps logo on all the cards and the other set has a much sharper, angular Topps logo on the fronts - all backs are identical.
They are all listed in the SCD annual guide.
Nolan Ryan, Barry Bonds and George Brett all have vertical and horizontal versions (other differences as well).
The Jeff Tackett card is the only card I cannot find a difference for.
As for other 1994 Topps variations, most have been mentioned above:
743 Pat Watkins (missing copyright and corrected)
340 Mark McGwire (with and without a print sheet letter) **Other players may exist with this seemingly scarce variation**
109 Delino DeShields ( with name/position printed in RED or YELLOW )
Despite years of searching through countless boxes of this product, these are the only ones I can confirm at this time.
Hope this helps!
***EDIT***
The Tackett comes in two different photo croppings, slight but noticeable side-by-side.
