Description: This is an extremely unique card which is very popular. This is the worst example of errors that Topps released. No explanation why Topps would have let this card be distributed. To start, the stats cutoff on the back of the card is a little worse than I've seen on other cards. It starts being cutoff at the beginning of the line all the way through the majority of "HAVANA". The second most popular error of this cad is the halo hat which almost looks like it was photoshopped because it is so off. It has an extreme blue line on the right side of the hat below and above the rim. There is also red that is showing on the right side of the brim. Lastly, there is a very strong halo on the underside of the hat between the hat and his face. IMO, this is the most extreme version of the halo hat that I have seen. Another identifier that makes this card even more wild is a large yellow ink dot just above the batting glove. This is in combination to what appears to be a dark blue spot toward the left border at about eye level in addition to a small yellow speck above the hat. What I haven't seen on any of the other error cards are the yellow stripes on the left side and bottom border and the blue stripe on the right border. Also, above the "s" in Athletics there is a thin black line on the sleeve that should be more of shading like what is seen on other cards. On the rear of the card, the stats cutoff is the most extreme that I have seen. On the bottom left of the card, there is a little bit of missing black ink. Because of how good of shape this card is, I think it would have come from the factory like this and not necessarily wear. All of the pictures were taken on an iPhone 13 and were not enhanced with the exception of some mark ups in red and magnification bubbles both to show the details of the card which are hard to capture if that card isn't viewed in person. Otherwise, the photos are not enhanced in any way. This is such an awesome card that screams iconic 80's trading cards. Legendary player and legendary card!
