The Topps Vault 1981 Topps Traded 4-Color Printing Mask - Red

I've been waiting to post this for a minute, got the card before Christmas.  Was super stoked to have a Topps Vault item from 1981 Topps Traded which is the first White Sox card for Fisk ever made.  It's not much to look at on the blog, but such a cool item to hold in my hand.  A piece of baseball card history for sure.

From the auction detail:  Direct from the legendary Topps Vault, this auction features an original 4-color mask film negative. Color separation mask film negatives were used in the set's printing and proofing process. This auction features the RED tone example. Four different colors: red, blue, black and yellow are used in this process. Although this production item is B&W in color, it rendered the RED tones in the finished card.
