Does anyone else have cards from this set with the backs inverted? I have a full-size Ivan Rodriguez #224, mini David Aardsma #212 & mini sticker Jeff Conine #219 that all have upside-down backs. I don't see any variations listed other than for the different team designations.
Just wondering if this is a common error, or intentional "misprinting" on Topps' part?

"Upside" backs are not considered a variation (VAR) nor error (ERR) for our database. They are a common printing process "error".

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

Yes, they are "normal" cards. It's a problem for me as I like the fronts to all face the same direction but then a lot of the backs are upside down. And vice versa.

Baseball Card Pedia mentioned that it was a tribute to the 1914 Cracker Jack set.

Okay, Joe...I'll bite. I recognize the late 1970's To Tell the Truth set but not the person (kid?) in your Profile image.
