1956 Topps Question

I was looking to add the Indians team card to my collection from 56 and noticed 3 versions. Are all team cards like this or was the Indians card the only one to get screwed up.

a) Cleveland Indians left side of black box -seems like this verion is SP

I know the Braves Team card is like this. I believe there are 6 teams like this.

The Cubs, Phillies, Indians, Redlegs, Braves and Orioles all had the three variations. The "centered" is typically the easiest, the "dated" the hardest and the "left" in the middle. The master set includes all three variations for all of them. Some are pretty expensive in 7 and 8s.

Thanks for the information, I have been working on my home office, and want to display all the team issue cards on the wall. I might have to leave space on the wall until iIcan afford the variations.

There were also white and grey back versions on some cards in the 1956 set. Hope I didn't just double the cards needed.
