First of all great thread! Secondly I have these four 1989 Topps Fred Lynn cards. All four of these have Fred Lynn pictured (in a Tigers uni) on the front, BUT....Two of the cards have Fred Lynn on the back and two of them have Ed Vandeberg on the back. Is this a common error or is one more rare then the other? Does Ed Vandeberg have this card with him pictured on the front but Fred Lynns stats on the back?? Thanks for your help in advance!

This is a wrongback error. More common in the Topps years of 1987-1992. It occurs when the card sheet is reversed between printing the front and back or occasionally sent to the wrong set of printers all together. And yes, there should be Vandeberg front / Lynn back as well.
