I saw that people are having to wait a long time on their COMC orders. Evidently I'm lucky though because I requested shipment on 6-3 and got my order on 6-9. It was a very small order though. I am going to break it up into a couple posts.
If you thought from the title COMC screwed up my order that is not the case, Everything I ordered came in. Part of what I ordered were Bill Virdon Printing Errors that I had never seen before.
Before I get to the errors this is what a 1979 TMCA The 50s #100 Bill Virdon should look like. It is in color but just barely. Now to the print errors.
As you can see this card lacks all color on the front but it does have a normal back to it. I actually like this better than the original. The original looks like it was colorized after the fact.
When this shipment came in I logged into COMC to see when I requested the shipment because it came so fast. I did a Virdon search and there are more Virdon printing errors from this set. I skipped all the ones that were only back errors and bought the one that had a front error. This is a yellowized version of the 79 TCMA card. It has a normal back. Makes me wonder if a blue and a red one will pop up some day.
Six days is super fast. Mine took a little over a month. No complaints though. I remember the days of waiting 3+ months.
