    Wow. Never seen anything like that before. Very interesting to me since I am a Cardinals collector.

    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.

    It looks like printer's scrap to me! I know there are those who collect these types of things but I don't think I would have paid that kind of money for what essentially is scrap. To each their own right? That is why there are no rules in this hobby as to what one should collect.
    I am on a budget and I am not afraid to use it!!

    Are you speaking from experience there, Al? image

    I think the Gibson card is really cool. I had always wanted to get a card that had a completely different issue on the back. A few years ago, my hopes were realized when I got this Barry Bonds front / football back card.

    happened when the printer was changing sets or just a practice sheet (printers scrap).... IMO, it wasnt issued in a pack of gum.... Ive never seen it (nonsport back) with a Topps card, but have with other sets. ie I once had a E92 Cy Young with a E79 Boxing back

    also had this E92 Kleinow with a E26 Menagerie Gum back

    My guess is that you are correct.

    He is possibly trying to show us in a non-chalant kind of way what he bought for $15.00 a while ago.
    He hasn't posted much since then, and now he posts this.
    Just a guess.
  • I have a few '78 Topps baseball with Mork & Mindy backs (I think Mork & Mindy cards are also from '78). Also have a few of the baseball/football cards.
