Well, at least Leaf kept that one in the family.
I just saw this one about ten minutes ago.
Donald Driver pic, Donald Driver stats on the back, and the name "Brian Westbrook" at the bottom.
Great quality control.

Jim Taylor:
Just not the correct Jim Taylor.
Topps did the same thing again the following year.

That's actually Iowacheese stiff-arming his partner while reaching for a donut.
If Jennings goes on to have a HOF career, that card will be worth some nice dough. Because of the error.
edit: oh that's not a card, it's the packaging for a jersey. whose jersey is inside?!

Nice throwing motion on that Jim Taylor card.
that looks like the old jump pass they used to throw. Some guys were crazy accurate with it too.
Don't think Ted can get that high anymore.
Actually, I think it is a card...they just put scraps of game worn jerseys on them to make them more valuable.
From a site that sells cards:
"Today’s hottest cards hidden in packs are the "Game Jersey, Baseball piece of the bat, glove, pants, base, hockey puck, ball, and autographs" inserts which feature small swatches of game worn or used memoribilia glued to the front. Collecting game-used Football Cards memorabilia is like having your own personal connection with the players, and each jersey tells a story of the blood and sweat put into each game. Own a piece of history and remember the legends of sport and the great moments in sports history with sports memorabilia and sports collectibles. Football and Baseball are the most popular spectator sports in the United States, and collecting football and baseball cards is a passion for many fans."

I'd rather have a 1956 Topp's Ted Marchibroda jump-pass card.
I'd rather have a card with tiny scraps of their game check attached
It's absolutely a card. I have several Packer cards with game used swatches. In fact, I have a Donald Driver from that same series.
The most expensive cards are ones with the piece of game memorabilia, and a certified on card autograph. Those can fetch some bucks. When you get cards with "cut autos" (certified autos from long gone players on bank checks, letters, legal documents) and cut jerseys, like Joe DiMaggio, for example, they can fetch a lot of $$.

How bout we keep it in football:
Oh and I can't find a picture but if you look it up, Mike Hunt played for the Packers.

So what you guys are saying is that they make the same mistakes on sports cards as they do on stock certificates. Right?

Mikes' Weeney is no mistake.
Since we are permitted to go beyond football cards, I offer this submission.

This has to be archived.
It all started out so innocently. I've been laughing for three minutes solid at Johnny Dickshot.

By the way, El Ka, Baseball Reference.com says Johnny's nickname was ugly. So he was known around the diamond as Ugly Dickshot.
