1969 / 1970 Transograms

Wanted to point out the differences between these as was going through PSA/SGC inventory scans and noticed even the grading companies mess it up.  One of the highest graded PSA 9 69 is actually a 70 and the highest graded SGC 96 1970 is a 1969.



The above picture highlights the differences for reference.  The easiest tell is the 69 has a print defect above the cap on the right now this might have been corrected within the print run so the other big tell is if the right border is intact the 69 has L borders on the corner the 70 T as it was part of bigger panel.  Harder differences is the picture is generally darker in 69 can really tell when side by side.  And if realy eagle eyed there is about 2-3 pixel shift right to left between the years if you notice the pinstripe and its distance to the border.

As always good hunting.

New Variation

Got wind of a new variation I didn't know of in the 1968 Atlantic Oil set evidently there is total of 4 combinations of fronts to backs.  They come with 2 different backs  - game rules and play ball which most of us know but also on the front the name comes in either solid black font or a half tone gray font.  Also the grey tone ones seem to have a sharper picture and deeper blue border.  Pretty obvious when you see them but never noticed before today.  Neither seem any scarcer than the other so no great premium just another couple cards to chase down.
