Pictured are two versions of the 1992 Puckett card #144. One is an error, showing "1991 N.L All-Star" on the front, and the other is correct, showing "1991 World Series" on the front. The backs are identical. The database only shows the "1991 World Series" card. How can the error version be added to the checklist (or who can do it?) Interestingly, by doing an eBay search, I found seven of the error cards listed and none of the correct cards, and most of the ads advertised it as an UER, but it obviously was corrected. Thanks for your help.

The UER, according to Beckett, are the At Bats and Batting Average numbers are incorrect. No mention of what the correct numbers should be. I checked his 1991 stats and his Season AB should be "611" and his BA should be ".319". His ALCS AB "21", BA ".429". His WS AB "24", BA ".250"
Are the AB and BA numbers correct? The same on each card?
So it looks like the "NL All-Star" error was corrected. But maybe not the stats.

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

The ALCS stats show 17 AB and .529 average, and it is the same on both cards, so that wasn't corrected. In my opinion, this card should be listed in the database as 144a (ERR) with the error being "1991 NL All-Star" on the front, and 144b (COR) with the correction being "1991 World Series" on the front. Am I correct on that, and, if so, can anyone change it? Thanks so much for the input.

One of those unique cards. I've come across a few like it in the database. The first card has two errors "NL All-Star" (ERR) and "stats" (UER). But the second card only has one of the errors corrected, leaving an uncorrected error. So there is no "COR" version. Using logic, I'd mark the NL All-Star card "ERR, UER" with "ERR: "1991 NL All-Star" on front; UER: ALCS AB and BA stats incorrect" in Note2. And the World Series card "UER". And "UER: ALCS AB and BA stats incorrect" in Note2. Does that make sense?

Makes sense to me. Thanks so much. Hopefully someone who has the ability to do this will make the changes.

Actually, I have to disagree with C2C this time. (could be a first!) I think maybe twins34 had it right in the post just before that. If the stats on the back are correct for the playoffs, but the front says "all-star" (and even more-so for the National League!), then by changing the front to say "World Series" it seems to me that it actually CORrects the front to match the stats on the back. Right?

Actually.....
Since the text on the front is simply foil, it looks like the one card got the wrong foil on it (NL). Generally, the community has regarded these simply as printing errors, and weren't listed here (like a blank bank, or one missing the foil).
