The Unannounced Super Short Prints This Year!!!
So last year, we got Pied in the Face. From the Yankees in series 1, to five random guys in both series 2 and the Update series. This year's SSP's (super short prints) might not necessarily be akin to the PITF's (or the Abe variations), but it seems that every card might have a variation that has a sparkle to it.
That's right.
This year, it gets a bit...sparkly.
After reviewing a few auctions from the 'Bay (and taking a tip from the girls from A Cardboard Problem), I am going to speculate that while these appear to be super short printed, they are not going to be akin from last year's stealth variations. Instead, these may very well appear to be another parallel set that is extremely short printed.
Further information as it develops.
Sincerely,
JayBee Anama

Blowout forums has a pretty good list of the SPs going: http://www.blowoutcards.com/forums/baseball/127110-2011-topps-short-print-variation-list.html
Also, baseballcardpedia is on it.
That top White Sox Rookie Card is weird looking. Seriously, they couldn't find a better place to put the shiny spot than his EAR!?
When they come up with bedazzling cards, you know they are running out of good ideas.
Topps might as well just come out and say it. "Have fun pretending you're a 12 year old (or younger!) girl!" :)
