Interesting print anomaly within the T201 Mecca issue, resulting in four players appearing on the same card.  The card is severely miscut, almost a third of the way into the adjacent card panel.  As a result, the cards of Joe McGinnity (HOF) and Lewis McCarty appear on the left side of the card, while Arthur McCabe and Charles Starr appear on the right.  While print errors are not everyone's cup of tea, there remains a loyal and ardent group of collectors who chase them with passion, particularly in the prewar arena.  This is one of the finest examples of an egregious print error in a prewar card we have encountered.
