Looking for 2019 Topps Heritage variations? They're in there ... but they're not all based on 1970 errors (gallery updated)

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

One of the fun things that collectors look for every year in Topps Heritage baseball cards are errors and variations directly based on the mistakes of the past.

That won't happen too often this year as the 1970 Topps set is relatively error-free save for small changes on six checklists in the set and a cartoon on the back of card No. 303 that's found with and without a baseball.

That means when you rip into boxes of 2019 Topps Heritage beginning on Wednesday you'll likely have to settle for chasing unknown errors not based on that original set and, of course, you'll have to chase the typical variations that are planned by Topps every year. There are cards that look to the past, though, like this Pat Neshek, which has a nod to Lowell Palmer from 1970. The Neshek isn't a mistake or variation, it's a simple planned photo to mirror the pitcher remembered for his dark sunglasses back in the day. (These cards share the same number to help reinforce the point.)

Now, what might be in store for this one on the short-printed variation front?

As for the planned variations in this one -- we'll detail things more right here once they start to arrive further below  -- announced in advance were throwback uniform photo swaps, action image photo swops and team name color variations.

Also back are trade notations and nickname cards, while a new surprise is "French text" cards (see below). Throw on parallels like the flip stock, metal cards and black-borders and there will be plenty to chase in this one.

Look for 2019 Topps Heritage boxes to arrive in hobby shops on Wednesday -- we'll begin breaking down everything that's surfaced right here.
