Misprint ? : Lance Bouma OPC Retro 2011-12
Hi,
I have a card of Lance Bouma. O-Pee-Chee Retro 2011-2012 #594.
Except that mine has nothing printed on the back.
The front is the same, but the back has no printings. Its a blank gray back.
Is this some kind of a misprint or it is usual for that card?
If its a misprint, does that worth anything or its pretty common to see that kind of card?
Thank you.
EDIT : Ok, I just found my answer on eBay, there are hundreds of Retro cards with a blank back for sale so its very very common and totally worthless .. they sell for 0.01 to 5.00 so its crap, too bad.

They are pretty rare cards and can fetch a fair buck... if it's someone noteworthy. Best luck unloading it!

Blank backs are pretty rare. I'm still looking for Hextall blank backs.

they are not crap, it's just nobody will pay big bucks for them. I opened over 3 boxes and got one, of course if you don't want it send it my way, for that matter if anybody has some and you don't want them let me know.

Thanks for your inputs.
I will not give it away, but its not a rare card. I could buy dozens on eBay for 2 to 5$ a piece so its very easy and inexpensive to build a blank back card collection.

Blank backs fall 3-4 a case so yes they are rare.

Be careful with the OPC blank backs as some people cut up the cards found on the Box Bottoms and call them blank backs when they are not-- always compare what you are looking at against the regular card.
