Quote:jacksoncoupage, good to see you back on here. Did you get a chance to see my 91UD Mattingly with no stats? It's a few posts up. Won that in a lot recently and have never seen anything like it. Thoughts?<br>Hi there-<br />
<br />
I did send you a PM about it (maybe 1 1/2 months ago or so??). I am really interested in it and have a couple of questions:<br />
<br />
Does the blank area have the exact same sheen or gloss to it (when held at an angle in the light) that the rest of the card does? <br />
<br />
Is there anything noticeably odd about the blank area?<br />
<br />
Like I was mentioning in the Ben McDonald thread, 1989-1991 Upper Deck were extremely easy to "erase" away sections of to create counterfeit "errors". You would see tons of this kind of thing at shows back then. But I am holding out hope that this and the 1990 UD Ben McDonald "white circle" variations are just extremely limited issue legit variations.<br />
<br />
The other that rouses my suspicion with the Mattingly is that it has all it's other appropriate black ink, so it's not a blackless variation. It has his name, copyright etc printed which leads me to think someone could've erased out the stats to create a 'clean' error card.<br />
<br />
Did the seller list it as an error or even mention it in the lot or did you just hit while sorting through them?<br />
