Card Identification Forum

Hi everyone, was wondering if someone could help me out with this card. This set has a English and French version. 

The English version of this card listed on the site has a different picture of Bill Harris on the front along with the same backing as the card above. (I own this English version as well)

The French Version of the card has this picture from above on the front with the French writing on the back.

But as you can see the card above is the French picture along with the English backing. Would this be considered a variant of the English version card? If so would someone be able to add this card to the database?

Thanks 

Before adding any cards, can we verify that the scans we have of the cards here are actually coorect?

We sometimes have situations where one member uploads the front and another uploads the back. I haven't looked at this set yet, but just wanted to point that out before we start adding "variations" that don't really exist.

Dan, I believe there are two versions to the card. https://www.comc.com/Cards/Hockey/1991-92/Ultimate_Original_Six_-_Base/35/Bill_Harris/10981271

Now that I looked at the set, it sure looks that way as I completely trust the uploader of the English one. BTW, I hope someone has the French one, as both sides of that one are incomplete and I will be starting the process of getting those removed.

I'll add the variation right now!

Thanks 

I have both versions of the English card. However, I can not verify if the French card is correct.

I'm not sure what I have - and I'm not home for another week - but I'll look. What I do have was part of a large lot I purchased and it is possible that I misfiled it as English not realizing there was a French version.

I love it when a new variant is discovered. Thanks for finding this one!

It is also possible that this was just a printing error.  Since they are from the same year, same company and the same player, it's possible they just misprinted some with the wrong combination of english/french fronts and backs.  Similar to cards with 1 player on the front with the back of another player.  I would recommend a little additional research before it is marked as a true variation.

You are correct, it may have been a mistake.  However, in my view, it's irrelevant if the two different card fronts were intentional or not. Two distinct variations of this card exist, both of which are widely available. I'd say that's two variants.

Research was done. I'm usually the last one to add a variation as having worked in the industry portion of the hobby, I have seen a ton of different printing defects (kept a few since we couldn't let them out the door) and understand Admin's guideline for adding wrong backs, etc.
