I have been picking up 2002 Topps #160 Albert Pujols HTA's and out of the 4 I got from various sellers one has Pujols on the back. The other three Have Polanco pictured on the back. The 2002 Topps overveiw of this set on TCDB has Pujols on the back of the card but says "no errors or variations have been added for this set yet." when clicking the Errors/Variations. Wondering which back is more rare?

My understanding is that the corrected HTA version came from factory sets and the error HTAs came from packs. It's been years since I did the research though and I can't find any of the information that I had used to come to that conclusion. Hopefully someone else out there has something more conclusive than my ~~faulty~~ memory. Once I concluded that the base version didn't have a corrected version, I moved on from this one.
