Picked up some pretty rare errors with the headline being the Mike Witt Black Box but I gotta say im more excited about the Andy Hawkins Error. Never seen one for sale on ebay or other sites (even checked worthpoint and nothing). Gonna sell them soon but not sure the pricing yet. Anyways here are some pics-

    the Ruskin has a full p on the front instead of a clipped p and the hawkins is supposed to have no hits white sox on the front instead of pitcher. Here are links to corrected versions-

    Hawkins Corrected
    Ruskins corrected

    713a Scott Ruskin full P in upper-left corner
    713b Scott Ruskin clipped P in upper-left corner

    HAWKINS: The error version reads: “Pitcher” as if it’s in the base card format instead of the Highlights subset format.

    The corrected version reads: “No-Hits White Sox” under his name on front.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Why am I not seeing the difference in "P" on the Ruskin? Still, nice cards! Big fan of the black box Witt!
  • jeffcbayjeffcbay Posts: 8,950 ✭✭✭✭
    Okay, this Ruskin card is bothering me... does anyone have a clear scan showing the difference of both P's?
  • DavidPuddyDavidPuddy Posts: 3,486 ✭✭✭
    I think it's just a very small slice out of the top of the "P".

    Not easy to see though.

    yeah sorry I can't find a clear zoomed in pic of one with the p clipped

    The reason why I'm so curious is because I have a half case of these 100-card high sets sitting in my card hoard. I had already cracked a couple sets looking for the Witt, but it appears that the Witt is primarily sheet cut. If I can pull Ruskin variations from them you can consider the sets opened. image

    I'm not sure Witt came in little sets or fact sets only hi packs.

    A fellow board member sent me this scan, I see the clipped "P" now... time to check the couple I have at home.

    It's funny, even Ruskin is looking up at the "P". lol
