WM Holiday without Snowflakes?

72RangerFan · 11-21-2017, 12:17 AM

Three different players have cards without snowflakes on them is that common? Did it happen last year or was it just a mistake?
HMW30 Kyle Freeland
HMW49 Jorge Bonifacio
HMW67 Jesse Winker
These are the only three I've noticed so far and I have multiples of them and non have the snowflakes. I haven't finished sorting the 5 boxes I bought but I didn't get HMW107 Cole Hamels I do know that. I only sorted 100 - 200 so I may be missing some in 1-99 I'll know tomorrow.

Found the same thing. My guess is a print error.

I believe this was a mistake but all the cards from those players appear to be that way so no SP issues.

I thought so and I just checked eBay to see someone trying to take advantage of the unsuspecting by listing for $6.95 each and calling them errors.

Yep. I just bought a box tonight and my Freeland and Winker are the same. Weird.

You can see tiny little snowflakes in the bottom corner of these. I'm guessing they couldn't cover up the RC logo or some other parts of the pictures. I pulled the metallic snowflake of Bonifacio and it was at the bottom of the card, but not nearly as much metallic effect as the normal card.

What does the HMW in the numbering stand for, Holiday Mart Wal?

Pulled a Freeland sparkle today and it had them in bottom corner. Has anyone seen 107 Cole Hamels I've busted 7 boxes and found none.

I've opened 5 boxes. The only card I don't have is 107. I think we have another Jerry Hairston Jr. on our hands.
