1972 Manama Postage Stamps
 These beautiful official government issued postage stamps from Manama were made of a plastic like material and used an advanced printing technique to show multiple images as the card was moved. This technique was used much later in 1986 on a new baseball card issue called "Sportflics". Each postage stamp pictured 2 different players as the stamp was tilted. There were (8) different stamps issued, (8) with American player-combos and (4) with Japanese player-combos. Also issued about the same time was a special larger stamp featuring BABE RUTH with the Yankees "MURDERS ROW" and appears to be significantly scarcer than the others. 1972 Manama Baseball Postage Stamps Checklist & Prices (You may be on that page now) |
1983 Topps Baseball Cards |
Die-Cut A special card that differs from a basic card by "Die-Cutting", cutting away portions of the card to create a special design. Most are serially numbered & limited.
Error Card Baseball card history is filled with error cards, many of them very interesting. Hank Aaron is on 2 of my favorite error cards. Aaron's 1956 Topps card action photo shows Aaron sliding home but it is actually Willie Mays not Aaron. Topps again goofed on Aaron's 1957 "reversed negative" card showing Aaron batting left-handed.
"Error Cards" are usually found early in print runs and often corrected. When this correction happens a VARIATION is created. Some variations are extremely interesting and very expensive while others are totally boring and you wonder why they were even made.
Extended Set Also frequently called Update Set or
Traded Set.
They are sets issued after the original release to update the regular set
with new and traded players.
Facsimile Autograph is an autograph printed on a card to show what the player's actual signature looks like. They are not "real" autographs.
Factory Set are complete sets usually in special boxes produced by the manufacturer. "Hand-Collated Sets" are sets collectors have put together card by card from packs.
