Going through a large lot of 1982 Topps I recently purchased in order to upgrade my collection and trade/sell the rest. Just came across this Woodie Fryman #788 and the other twenty or so cards I have have a clearly purple trim and purple lettering for the name and Topps logo. However, the one on the left is clearly blue.

Look at the coloration of the overall photo, it's missing a good deal of it's "redness". Low magenta ink. Simply a printing issue. ------------------------------- -- Dan -- Note: Please see my profile for more info regarding trading (section updated 3/4/2024).
