1991 Score is an 893-card set making it one of the biggest sets of the Junk Wax Era. The set contains just three corrected error cards, which are listed below.
What’s Not Included in this Checklist:
- Uncorrected Errors (UERs): These include minor typos on card backs and/or fronts. Since these cards were never corrected, they’re just the standard cards in the set.
- Blank/Wrong Fronts/Backs: Examples beyond what’s stated are manufacturing scrap and weren’t issued in packs.
Errors Checklist:
| Card # | Player | Error |
|---|---|---|
| 224A | Kent Anderson | flachy (1st line, 2nd para) |
| 293A | Les Lancaster | No comma between Dallas and Texas |
| 352A | Scott Chiamparino | Bats: Left |
Take a look at card 704 score baseball shows Andy Hawkins on front in the no-hit club but on the back shows him losing the game . May I missing something
Hi Tracy,
Thanks for the comment. A no-hitter and a lost game are two separate statistics.
Of the three cards listed one may presume the error to have more value, and the corrected card(s), in my case #352A, “Bats: Right,” to not be worth note of collectability. However, wondering of the ratio between print errors and corrected as to which one may be more rare in each case. Thank you.
Hi Paul,
Thanks for the comment. A number of factors contribute to collectability and value i.e., how early in the print run the error was corrected, player significance, error significance, etc. In the case of #352A, value differences are minute even though it appears the Bats: Left variety is less abundant. Unfortunately, I’m unable to comment on print ratios as it’s my understanding that that information has never been made public.
I stumbled across this page while researching a card I have. It’s a 1991 Score card with Neal Heaton on the front but the back is of card 317 Greg Maddux. Maybe some of the wrong front/backs made it out. This is more of an FYI since I cannot find any further info on this.
Hi Tom,
Thanks for the comment. Yep, the wrong front/back thing was common during this era due to the amount of product produced. It’s just manufacturing scrap. These cards doesn’t hold much value, but they’re cool to have in the collection.
I have the America Flag Card in the 91 score set that has a an upside down grey teardrop shape right in the middle of the blue and stars part of the flag. Cant find anything on it. Its clearly a print error with the thin blue outline of the grey teardrop. Have you seen this before?
Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for the comment. What you have sounds like a simple printing error, which is common in sets from this era.
