1991 Score #210/125 "Wrong-Back"
Card Review: N/A I'm not counting this as a card. It's getting the catch-all "odd-ball" abbreviation. It's a "wrong-back" error with Jay Buhner on the back instead of the Wallach card back. In the 1980's and early 90's these would show up on a somewhat regular basis. I never pulled one from a pack myself, but I know I saw them in card shops and probably knew a kid or two that had one. They used to sell for really obscene prices. They were sort of a forerunner to today's limited print run inserts. I don't really see the appeal myself. I'm sure there are some neat combinations out there. A Pete Rose/Ray Fosse card or Mitch Williams/Joe Carter one would be kind of neat. But for the most part, I just see them as random printing errors. Not that I mind finally having a Wallach example in my collection.
