Share March 13, 2012 This is my very 1989 fleer errors favorite of all the error cards of the eighties. Jeff Treadway played for the Reds in the infield and this 1989 fleer alan ashby error is hissecond year card. At the top of the error card is a small blue circle with blue crosshairs in the middle which collectors have designated the target. It is actually a printers 1989 fleer baseball cards complete set value recognition mark and should denote the center of the card and only be on the edge of the uncut sheet that is disposed of when the cards are cut as singles. Somehow this target mark got put on the card itself and became a recognized error card. The 1989 fleer set contains many famous error cards such as the Billy Ripken F@@@ Face bat and Randy Johnson'sMarlboro sign showing rookie card. It is estimated that over 100,000 of the F@@@ Face card made it into packs but my estimate on the Treadway error is perhaps 100-200 cards that slipped thorugh before they started printing the nontarget common version. This is a tiny fraction of the 5 million or so cards that were printed of each player in the set. Prices on the treadway error run from $25 to $100 depending on the condition and whether they are graded. Like many errors this card is almost always found to be off center or misscut which lowers its value significantly. I recently purchased a BGS 8 here on Ebay for $60 and it had centering problems or it would have been easily a 9.As of 3/12 I now own 9of these cards and the ungraded ones run about twenty dollars.

Errors | 8 Comments Facebook0Twitter0Google+0Although I've been a part of this hobby for decades, it wasn't until just this year that I began paying closer attention to the Jeff Treadway 1989 Fleer #173A. To be quite honest, this card remained well under my radar for many years since it first appeared on the market during the tail end of the first wave of the butt-rock era of the late 80's. It's simple really, my focus was thoroughly distracted by my incessant hunt for Frank Thomas cards. In some ways, it still is. Over time however and as I've matured as a collector, I've widened my focus to include research on errors. This one in http://www.ebay.com/gds/1989-Fleer-Jeff-Treadway-Target-Error-173A-/10000000100048870/g.html particular caught my eye as it hosts a type of misprint that's not seen on other cards, at least not to my knowledge. This may possibly be the only card that features this target. This error is rather unique and easy to miss if you are generally unaware of it or if you are unclear on how it's defined. If you look closely at the version on the right, you'll notice a floating target just http://www.radicards.com/errors/1989-fleer-baseball-173-jeff-treadway-target above Jeff's head. This target character is similar to something that's often found in Adobe creative suite like Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop. If you take a look at the centerpiece of my Photoshop screenshot, you'll notice a similar target character. Hypothesis of Origin: Due to the use of a much earlier version of today's popular creative suits, I'm going to assume discrepancies in technology and general user experience. When we use a creative suite today, this target immediately disappears upon saving the document or even upon releasing pressure from the command key. I would have to be naive to assume that that's the way things were in similar software from the late 80's. Perhaps in this case operation of said software was simply more manually oriented than it is today. Perhaps the case is that the user had to manually remove the target during pre-production. If that's so my hypothesis retains some credibility, and pairs nicely with the inevitability of human error. As I've stated in previous posts, long hours increases probability of fatigue and hence chance of error. In this case, the Adobe guy was likely working on fumes and clocked out one step too early and the first run of this card accidentally got overlooked and made it into production. This error was likely caught early meaning that there are
