Why isn't more made of the T-206 ShaRPe/ShaPPe error cards? Not only is the spelling wrong, (apparently due to a printing error where the bottom part of the R is missing, leaving a tiny dot at the bottom) the pictures of both Shappe/Sharpe is actually that of Harry Hinchman (Toledo). Can't recall offhand who is actually in the Hinchman photo. I enjoyed this vid and maybe you could shed some light on this "Triple Play" of errors... or 3 Strikes? Keep up the good work.

My buddy had the Frank Thomas NNOF when we were kids. His parents bought him all kinds of expensive baseball cards. He had Ruth's and Mantles. Roger Maris. Clemente. I was so overwhelmed he had those. His dad kept them in a safe for him. When we got about 17 or 18 he got into drugs really bad and got into the safe and pawned and sold all of the cards. It still breaks my heart to this day.

I remember very well the error card craze of the 1980s. One of the most famous hockey card errors (which was never corrected) is the 1974-75 Topps and O-Pee-Chee Jacques Lemaire card. Lemaire played his entire career for the Montreal Canadiens, but was inexplicably shown as a member of the Buffalo Sabres on his 1974-75 card. Topps even airbrushed a Sabres uniform onto his photo. Us little kids back then all wondered how a mistake like that could happen.

I go for master sets, but when I set about to assembled the variations/errors, I had to make a rule that I was only looking to acquire design variations - i.e. where the cards went to print, an error was detected, there was a redesign of some sort, and then the new version went to print. Obvious examples are the 1974 Washington variations, the 1979 Bump Wills Blue Jays, and many others. I stay away from printing flaws where the process caused the variation - this would include the Pancho Herrera card shown here, but also the NNOF Thomas, and others. If you go down that rabbit hole, there's no end in sight.

The 1981 Fleer Graig Nettles (spelled "C"raig on the back) was truly the first one that brought attention to errors. Some collectibles magazines had classified ads for the card asking as much as $35 for this card. Fleer was just starting to get back into the hobby in 1981 (along with Donruss in their inaugural year), and tried to drum up more sales by printing these less printed "error" cards. It certainly worked in their favor, too.

Most people know the regular and black box, you will hear some talk about the scribble and white out but you noted that there are several other varieties. Nobody talks about those. I was dealing when this came out and had at least 7 different varieties in my hand at one time. Most of the others are scribble varieties. The other comment is on the Frank Thomas. That card is so rare. I was always buying and opening the first of all the products and I never even saw this card in person at the time.

The FT card was the most pronounced of what is referred to as the 'blackless' errors of the 1990 Topps set... about one dozen cards adjacent to FT on that sheet were affected... likely happened for a very limited time producing a very limited number of errors... since 1990 Topps is so cheap to pick up I chased these for a little while but eventually gave up...

One of my favorite errors besides the Bill Ripken is the 1990 Upper Deck Mike Witt black box. At one time this was a very rare error that sold for over 1k. After a 820 count box of them was discovered it is more reasonably priced now. At the National last year, I had Mike Witt himself sign one of my copies and spoke with him about it. I was surprised he did not have a copy of his own error card, so I gave him my other one. Very nice guy and great collector experience for me.

The front had an imprint of the face of Jeff Gordon with the number 23 “Ken Dryden” on the front that had 4 color separation running vertical to it. The story is that Dryden refused the company to use his likeness being he was ranked with other goaltenders ahead of him. All these card were supposed to be pulled but a few got out. I sold it (regrettably) shortly afterwards for $250. By the way, Upper Deck offered a free box of cards in trade for the card.

I think the coolest thing about the Frank Thomas NNOF is that there are other cards on the sheet that are also missing blank ink, but no other card managed to have a missing name. Something got stuck on the printer that prevented black ink from being applied. Some cards are missing a piece of border etc. Not very many sheets were printed before they realized what was happening. I think it was just cello boxes that were impacted and I think even then they were only shipped to a specific part of the country (New England maybe?) At some point people will also start looking for the other cards that are missing black ink and realize they are just as rare.

Do you know anything about a junior seau error from 1996 pinnacle set. One of his cards is In color and glossy and the other is partly in black and white. And has no gloss finish. Card number 165. Thier is also a Terance Mathis card number 161 in black and white. Same score pinnacle set.

The black and white cards are the Field Force parallel of the base set

Great Video. I was wondering thought because these kind of cards weren't mentioned but what about miscut, and blank front/back cards? Because I don't know if either they are worth anything or not. I would imagine better players are but I've had a Aikman blank card on my store for awhile and no movement. But my father was able to sell a Juan Gonzalez Negative but with a blank back for $70. Also with miscut cards must be rare and expensive because I saw a 1952 Jackie Robinson miscut sold for 10x a normal version because the miscut had part of the 1952 Mantle. Just wondering if you could do a follow up talking about these kinds of cards and their value.

The Ripken card is the only sports card to ever make the evening news. I remember hearing the media frenzy, then going out the next day looking for boxes. I found a few cello boxes at independent liquor stores in the San Fernando Valley that had the error card. I flipped them to a local card store a few days later for $20 or $25 each. That had to have been at least $20 million dollars in free advertising for Fleer. Its a wonder one of the companies doesnt create an offensive card that is quickly pulled off the shelves sort of like the Beatles "Butcher" LP cover.

Why isn't a 1997-98 Score Joe Thornton #54 an error? It has Joe's card front, and Mark Recchi's card info on the back. It was corrected, and must be faily rare. I have about ten cards, with only one error. Just curious. Thanks,

I got a giant box of cards in pages from CardsOne many XMAS's ago. A complete 1989 Fleer set was there incl. the Billy Ripken F card! I built a master 1987 Topps set and missing only one error aside from wrong back or blank cards which I have a few of.

Man the 1990 Donruss set was loaded with errors...I remember I thought it was so awesome because I pulled the Juan Gonzalez reverse negative, I treated that card like it was high dollar for a long time, none of my friends could convince me to trade it haha

Looked up the Thomas nnof on eBay and I saw a bunch that had his name on them but say "partial blackless," I was not aware of those

The billy ripkin by far is my favorite. Great story about how it happened too. I read topps tried to destroy some sheets of the ripkin card by cutting them. Apparently, a few employees took some of the half cut sheets and sold them. I recall seeing some for sale on eBay a few years ago.

Yes,except it was,of course,fleer,not topps.The cards have a vertical cut running from the bottom edge up through the bat knob.The funniest ones were where the cut is on the left side of the card,missing the offending words.Of course you could take the "black box" cards,and with an x-acto knife re-create the "error",so they quickly had no added value.

I had the John Littlefield corrected version when I was a kid, eight years old. I remember being so bummed out when i saw how much the error was worth in Beckett. I still have the corrected one, but I've never picked up the error card.

I've been collecting since the late '70's and been to hundreds of card shows and shops over the years and I've never seen the Littlefield error in person..pretty tough card.

I was in college during the Billy Ripken and lived through the hype. It was crazy... that's all anyone wanted. When it first came out, it was selling for $60 (an unheard of price at that time for a card).

The 1952 Topps #146 Frank House could be added to this list. House played for the Tigers. There are 2 versions of the color of the Tigers logo on his cards. The pure yellow Tiger logo goes for significantly more. Since Topps obviously was not printing variation cards in 1952, shouldn't this House card be considered an error card?
