i was trying to figure out which version of the 2012 GQ Tony Gwynn card i had but it appears that the same image was uploaded for 262a and 262b. Anyone help with this one? ------------------------------- Baseball: 1957 + 61 Topps, 1950 + 53 Bowman (Color), If i win the lottery maybe i will try to finish an 1887 Buchner Gold Coin and the 1914 and 1915 Cracker Jack Sets too

262 is listed as Frank Thomas. Can you confirm the number on Gwynn's card? ------------------------------- Bruno -------- Check my Profile page to see my 2023 Goals and my Lists of sets near completion (5 cards or less) or sets getting close (less than 100 cards missing and 75% complete). https://www.tcdb.com/Forum.cfm/Page/B/ID/0/?MODE=VIEW&ThreadID=25745&C=0

The two images on the site are correct. You'll notice in the B (variation) image that there is no black line in the background by his front leg. Not much of a variation, all they did was make the shot slightly tighter. ------------------------------- Always looking for baseball variation/error cards and anything Garrett Whitley or Ian Anderson

Are you kidding me? That's an awesome variation! The two cards together make a stereoscopic image:

If you merge the two images with your eyes (like the old 'focus on the dot and put the bird in the cage' optical illusion) it makes the image appear to float behind the frame.
