Looks good to me

Wasn't there a thread earlier this week about asking about a Paul O'Neil card that was the same type of test card?

 

[Yanks2151]

Yes, that was my OP. here is the link:

I was happy to see some graded for some legitimacy on these.

I do not like them and I like pretty much dig all print flaw, misprints, tests, promos etc.

If they were cyan (blue) tests, why would the parts that are made from other colors (magenta/yellow) such as the Donruss logo show up as blue? Why would Donruss test those areas in that color? Take a look at a 1990 Donruss Blue/White for a clear example of this.

With this hobby, and the junk era especially, anything is possible and I could be wrong but I won't add any of them to my PCs.

I'm not sure if it adds to the authenticity that the regular Donruss and the Donruss Learning Series have the same type of Blue proof...

Is the link for that Mark Grace graded card also from the learning series?

Im confused by these all together and very curious about how this envelope came about.

No, that is not the Learning Series.

 

[Yanks2151]

No, that is not the Learning Series.

Let me ask you this. Have you seen any of these "non learning series" so called proofs before? What is your opinion on any of this stuff? I am assuming Beckett would not grade these unless they are legitimate items, no? I player collect a lot of players from the 90 Donruss era but never stumbled on these before.

 

[Hawk8]

I have the Andre Dawson proofs graded by Beckett.

This card never made it to production and thus these proofs are some of my favorite proofs that I have of Dawson.

I also have other years of these proofs also.
