1990 Fleer Update Baseball Forum

Greetings,

I just wonder if this should be added as an UER?

The border color is light blue while all the rest of the Cubs players have a dark blue border.

Thoughts?

No. We cannot make assumptions on what the card company was planning with the various teams/players when it comes to colors for inner borders.

FWIW, large amounts of 92 Score have two different blue color bars where the name is on the front. Just different ink levels.

I personally keep the different versions but I don't put them on the site.

This one wasn't an inking issue. All the Boskies have light blue instead of the darker blue, but like Dan said, we can't assume it was a design mistake. It could've been on purpose for some unknown reason, which sounds dumb, but we can't mark them as UER. 1994 Topps had a bunch of similar issues in Series One where team colors weren't consistent among players on the same team. I think 1993 Topps had a few as well.

I added the light blue/blue as a Comment on the card, and that's what we can do with all the other cards with similar coloring issues.
