Why is there 2 Mark Teixeira cards with 2 different poses? Card #110 also states on the front 1 base and card #400 states 1B what’s the purpose for the 2 cards.

So I just went to target and bought 5 packs of 2011 Heritage. I ended up pulling the #139 Joba Chamberlain red tint and I have been trying to get an idea of how good of a card this is worth. On ebay someone is selling one for $150 another is going for $80 I don’t know too much about this product and just starting buying it. Started doing some research and it looks like no one knows too much about the pricing just yet. Whatever advice you can give me would be helpful on this card thanks!

IN REFERENCE #392 RYAN ZIMMERMAN’S 2011 TOPPS HERITAGE BASEBALL VARIATION. WHAT IS THE ERROR, WHAT IS THE CORRECT BATTING AVERAGE. A FELLOW COLLECTOR HAS THE CARD AND STATES ZIMMERMAN WON THE “PERCENTAGE TRIPLE CROWN” AMONG NATIONAL LEADUE THIRD BASEMEN IN 2010 BY POSTING AN OBP OF .388, SLG OF .510 AND OPS OF .899. HIS MORE TRADITIONAL TRIPLE CROWN NUMBERS OF .307-25-85 WERE STRONGLY COMPLEMENTED BY HIS USUAL BRILLANCE AT THIRD BASE AND THE CALM LEADERSHIP HE PROVIDED IN THE YOUNG WASHINGTON NATIONALS CLUBHOUSE. MY FRIEND CLAIMS THIS IS THE SHORT PRINT AND IS TRYING TO SELL IT FOR $175. IS THIS CORRECT CARD OR THE ERROR SHORT PRINT, PLEASE RESPOND BY SENDING ME YOUR REPLY BY EMAIL. THANKS.

From mod: The error says his average was .370.

If you guys don’t like the Heritage product because of the errors and variations, JUST DON’T BUY IT. If you want “regular” cards again, stick to the Topps base issue set that they also release every year. The purpose of the Heritage cards, and they’ve been doing this pretty much since the inaugural sets were released, is to be “authentic” to the original set they are mimicking, which includes a lot of these errors, variations, and short prints.

So again, if you don’t like that Topps does this, simply don’t buy the product. There are a lot of us that do enjoy tracking these down, and we’ll gladly buy up the boxes you put back in the supply chain.

That’s my two cents

Card No. 22 the San Diego Padres Team Card has a UER, too. The Stats on the back belongs to the Cleveland Indians.

1. The card on the left is the rare version.

2. The background is different because the outfield that is showing in one version is underneath his name and vice versa.

3. The logo was probably altered at the request of MLB — or to not make them mad.

4. The errors are all corresponding to cards in the 1962 set. The 125 card corresponds to card No. 521 since there aren’t that many cards in this year’s release.

What’s really weird is the backgrounds are different. Look at the field and the outfield walls on each side.

So the photo looks like a reverse negative aside from the logo. Is that because of any copyright issues with reversing the logo? If I’m looking at this correctly they reversed the photo then photoshopped the logo to be facing the right way – both on the hat and the uni.

And the expression on his face looks even more ridiculous when you put them side by side. Should have had a “Cameron Diaz feeding him popcorn” variation.
