Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist . . . Card #56 - ERNIE BANKS, Chicago Cubs, from the Diamond Classics II set issued in 1983 by Big League Collectibles, Inc.ERROR CARD: Wrong Back (Guy Bush) Variation The printer flipped a sheet (or two) and created some error variations including this one of Ernie Banks (front) paired with Guy Bush (back). Not only was the wrong player biography printed on the reverse but it was printed upside down! Increasingly popular among collectors and serious baseball fans desiring vintage replicas of their favorites are the cards issued by Big League Collectibles, Inc. (or BLC). Big League Collectibles issued cards from 1982 to 1985 providing full-color, limited edition cards at reasonable prices. All cards were produced from original, handpainted photographs on thick, white card stock reminiscent of the popular 1933-1956 classic cards issued by Goudey, National Chicle, Gum Incorporated, Bowman, Topps and others. Just 10,000 impressions of each card were produced in 2-1/2" by 3-3/4" format (same size as 1953-1955 Bowman). Cards of this size fit best in 8-pocket sheets designed for pre-1957 Topps and Bowman cards or Vintage Card Size top-loaders. Due to a handful of flipped press sheets, this card was created with the wrong back (Guy Bush, not Ernie Banks) being printed upside down. We discovered them decades after they were issued.
