1971 Topps Bill Freehan error card? - seelye24 - 09-01-2011
I was just looking through an old box of my dad's 1971 Topps cards and noticed there was an error on his '71 Bill Freehan card. It seems like there was an error where they cut the cards from the sheet and they cut off the "Tigers" from the top of his card and you can see the "Astros" at the bottom from the next card. I was just curious if this was a common error and nothing too spectacular, or if it is something unusual that could possibly affect the BV of the card. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I can try to get a scan up if needed. Thanks!!

Sounds like it's just a miscut. Used to happen a lot.

Not an error, just a bad miscut. If anything, it really devalues your card.

lol ok I figured it was just a bad cut but wanted to make sure -- though I guess I sure am glad it wasn't his Clemente
