Every week, one of you readers gives me a reason to keep Weird Card Wednesday alive. This time it was Tom Zuppa who emailed me with a card with an issue I hadn’t seen before.
Tom Z. emailed a scan of his Gerald ‘Slim’ Kindall’s original 1963 card. Here’s the front of Kindall’s card:
While he may be a possible candidate for Terrible Tuesday, there isn’t anything too odd about it.
But now take a look at the back of Kindall’s card:
Wow, something went wrong at the print shop.
My two thoughts when saw this:
1. Given that APBA prints thousands of cards a year, I’m actually surprised this doesn’t happen more often.
2. If this happened to Slim Kindall in the 1963 set, I’m wondering how many others in the ‘63 set were maligned in a similar way.
thanks Tom Zuppa!!
