Im having trouble identifying this card. The back says White border and the front is different then the base set. Any ideas?
Thanks

Sure in heck looks like another quality control issue by Topps, becoming way too common. These are supposed to be, shockingly enough, white.

I believe the black borders also say “white border” on them. Is this from target? Do they have an exclusive red border?
edit: I see they’re a giant box exclusive but yeah, that’s a red border which seems to have the same border label as the blacks

Thanks for the info. Makes total sense that Topps would call them White Borders for Red cards. Why didnt I think of that.

All three parallel border cards say white border: White Border cards, (Target) Red Border cards and all the Black Border cards I have seen all say also say "White Border" in that box.

I may be missing something, but where on the back does it mention the card being white bordered? Or is it just the code that I can't read?

Wrong backs? Are you suggesting Topps would mix up the sheets during printing?

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

Who? Topps? Screw up printings?! Never!!
Based on what I've seen the Red Border parallels are UERs as everyone I've seen all have the WHITE annotation on them. So yeah, could very simply be that or they simply forgot to change text.. Of course, I haven't seen all of the Red Borders, but....

It's supposed to say the variation type in tiny print above the card number. But as others have pointed out, it's less than reliable.
