Description

There were cards that had printing defects. Cards with blank backs exist as well as cards with missing black ink on the front. According to researchers <ref>http://forums.collectors.com/messageview.cfm?catid=11&threadid=709331</ref> Topps printed this set in six separate sheets and a small percentage of cards from sheet F were printed and packaged with missing black ink on the front. The most popular card missing black ink on the front is the NNOF Frank Thomas rookie card. This card happens to be the most sought after card in set, however according to researchers, printing the card with the name wasn't a deliberate act on Topps. There were several cards from sheet F that are missing black ink.

A card of George Bush wearing a Yale baseball uniform also exists. Legend has it that 50-100 George Bush cards were printed for the President. Over time, either these cards have made it into the secondary market or some of them found their way into packs. A photo in Topps Magazine from 1990 depicts President Bush holding a binder of these cards <ref>http://junkwaxgems.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/image0753.jpg</ref>.
