What does the Fleer Sticker Project have to say about this particular set? I always go there for my info.

What set are you talking about?

I feel I'm pretty net savvy, but I haven't the first clue on how to even search for that project's thoughts on the matter.

Just looks like a guy's blog that might have kicked off with the Fleer stickers in mind but most posts are unrelated in any way.

The blog author generally goes by year of issue. He does take a break from baseball for a few months to cover Fleer Football. Definately the most extensive sticker project I have found online. Here's the link to th "1986 Fleer Baseball Stickers" page.

Thank you!  That was the entry point I was looking for.  I had randomly browsed through dozens of links trying to find a page that detailed the stickers.  Looks like from that 1986 I can find links to at least 85, then from there 84 & 83.  Fun read.

Half way down on the right side there is a 'search this blog ' box. It's kind of buried, but usually pulls back what you're looking for. 

Are we talking '86 Fleer Logo and Pennant? If so, each team has Logo and Pennant sticker, the variations are the different Famous Feats listed on the back. Most teams have 2-3 different FFeats. In keeping with my post there other variations not listed in the TCDB, some color variations some not. ~BOB~

For the sake of brevity and the TCDB, a couple definitions:

ERR/COR - cannot exist without the other. If a mistake (ERR) was fixed in a subsequent printing, you have a corrected (COR) version.

UER - If a mistake is made and never fixed. The 1957 Topps Hank Aaron reversed negative is an UER. The 1989 Donruss Darren Daulton where he posed as as righty is NOT. (I have seen some places mark it as such! Ugh!)

VAR - Where there is no real mistake, but simply a variation. the 1973 Topps manager cards come to mind as a great example of that (the coaches backgrounds). Card 1 / Card 2

Wow, if we call the 1973 T Manager cards a variation, I know many  cards that are more distinct, yet not recognized on TCDB. I think WHEN I get a chance I will enter a few and everybody can see and decide.. ..comment etc. for themselves.

And Dan you nailed it, mix in my definition with yours, and ADMIN has a parameter to go by. As I see it, there are a few that need correcting, ERR not VAR or VAR not ERR, and even a few with ERR/VAR and COR visa versa. And of course many to enter, not a small task for sure. The inaccuraicies are not any member's fault, just misinformed regarding the ERR/VAR/COR designation.

Reading and replying to the posts have been fun...thanks to all that have a keen interest in the topic.

Meanwhile, Softball season is just around the corner and Miss T has been working out hard to start her Junior season. Keep the updates coming.
