    I have a fossil slowpoke card which of course has the misprint of the illustrators name, in addition to the illustrators name there is also a smallish printer hickey near the end of the illustrators name, i cant find any information any where about a slowpoke card with the same printer hickey nor have i been able to find a photo of the card that has the same hickey. Has anyone else seen this hickey ? Or have the same card with this hickey ?
    🙂

    I will add a photo of it to this thread shortly - if i can work out how to add photos 🤪😅

    While some ink bubble errors occur throughout an entire print run, many seem to be random. Not being able to find any other documentation of it, this is probably an example of the latter. Not sure if it would add any value, but you can call it a double-error card!

    Thanks so much for all your replies!!!! Do you know if there is a website or a company that can be contacted that can tell you if the ink bubbles will add any value ? Either way its a cool and unique card to me! ☺️
     
    Random errors generally don't add any kind of value. Some like to collect them and may pay more while others consider them flawed and may expect to get them for less, so it kind of balances out. Repeated printer errors, like the "d Edition Butterfree," are generally more sought after.
