So I'm going through all my sets and am on 2003. And I was prepared to like it. The subsets are good. I love all the award cards. The name, position, and team are on the front. I like the blue fronts, though they chip. But, oh my god, the errors. So many cards with bad stats. I first found Julio Franco, then many others, where it's just obviously wrong. For goodness sakes, Topps, hire a 13 year old to proofread the whole set for three hours. Sheesh.

Just figured I would add to this. I have an error that is not listed, nor can I find an image for it. It is card 4 out of 10 in this subset. Should be Chris Lubanski (and that is what it says on the back of the card) but the front has the name of Ryan Wagner. The image on this site says Chris Lubanski...does not match up with the card in my hand. I don't have a scanner, but I can take a pic with my phone and get it on here somehow, for the benefit to look at, if need be. Anybody else have this error card?

For clarification, it is the bonus draft pick insert/bonus set. Checklist of 10 cards. Card in question is 4 of 10

Being a Royals fan, I had a bunch of key Royals and KC A's cards, but everyone knows what happened to those. I also had complete Topps Chiefs team sets from mid-'70s to 1999, but I sold those a few years ago to focus on baseball. I don't have Razorbacks, but I have a NW Arkansas Naturals Jersey from when they won the AA championship around 2010 and a T-shirt from that year. Good times in Springdale. I have baseballs from the College Regionals in Fayetteville and from the Naturals games. I might still have the Royals team schedule refrigerator magnets they give out every Opening Weekend from about 2007-2010. Greinke was on the 2010 one before he won the Cy Young and then left. Those might have burned too though. I dont' know. Most everything is boxed up and packed away, but I'll be driving through KC on my way cross country. We're kind of roughing it right now.

I think I was reading your signature block instead of your comment, sorry. Big Royals fan.

What you are describing sounds like a printing error, where a sheet gets printed with the wrong back aligned. However, with it being such a small set, I suppose this could be something else entirely. Is the front photo also Ryan Wagner (Reds player, card #2 from this set?)
I believe to upload photos with a phone to the Forums, you need to upload it to an image hosting website or service and then provide the link to it using the image icon. I don't know that there's a way to directly load images.

You can directly load images if you start a thread in the mystery card forum.
