    Here's another one. I have two of these Killebrew front Garr back cards and sent them in. First they came back graded as Killebrew cards, when I informed PSA that they weren't looking very closely at the cards, they refused to regrade them as "wrongbacks" and sent them back to me raw.

    Consider me amazed when a bunch of 1973's with gaps in the printing of the black "border" line on the front are being graded as variations?!?!?!?!?!?

    It's one thing to miss an incorrect back (actually this is still disturbing), but to label the wrongback card with the player listed on the back is pretty hard to believe.

    In doing some research on the 1974 set it seems there are quite a few cards with different players stats listed on the back. Obviously an error that was corrected. Why not grade them as wrongbacks and allow them in Master sets?

    There are MANY examples of cards that had printing problems and they are being graded as such; Billy Ripken and NNOF Thomas cards are a couple that come to mind. While they aren't wrongback cards they are simply errors in the printing process.

    Guess they only graded half the card before encapsulating it

    Hard enough to accept a wrongback, but a wrongfront? How could that happen? Graders so focused in on corners edges surface etc that they don't look at the player?
