Ripken rc, Need a little info? Question about printer ink or error
I picked up a Ripken rc lot and found a color difference in two of the topps rc's. Error? Printer problem? I just think it's weird with the blue ink ( the green is the regular version)

That would be my diagnosis, too!

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

That's what I was thinking. Color error! The blue on the side matches up with the blue at the bottom
