1974 Topps Hank Aaron ...Anything special?

Well, Grandpa gave me a bunch of his cards (a few shoe boxes full) and says, "I'll split the earnings with ya kiddo." As I feared would be the case, the cards in the boxes seem pretty worthless--but I am trying to squeeze a few bucks for my old man's old man. So, the 1974 Aaron looks like a 25 cent card except that the back is messed up. Does anyone know if '74 Topps had some messed up runs with major printing damage on the backs? Or what can be said of the back of this card? Is it a counterfeit? The front looks very legit. Thanks.image

    There is nothing wrong with the back. The 300's are a puzzle. If you need help pm me I will give you a tutorial on the 74 set, variations, premiums for washington cards, winfield rc, et all...I know that set as well as anyone!! I can give you the players card numbers without looking thats how well I know the set.

    Thanks for making me feel old when you say your Grandpa gave you cards from 1974! Please tell me has some from the '50s or '60s. If you'll excuss me I'm going to count my grey hair now.

    The '74 All-Star cards form a puzzle of '73 All-Star MVP, Bobby Bonds. Except for the pitchers card, which has the game's stats on the back.
