I never knew until reading the entry on Jeff Allendar's House of Checklist site today, that the 2nd X-Files set from 1996, had a bunch of the common cards with text that was later altered and corrected in later printings. Did anyone else know that ? I bought all of the Topps X-Files cards back in the 1990s and never heard of this before

Here's the error list, scroll down to the bottom.

Wow, I've totally forgot about that, but I don't remember it being so many. Guess I never looked for that close for errors.

I have most of them. I also have cards in German and Italian.

There's French, and maybe Spanish text too. It's been a long time since I've looked through them. I've forgot more about X-Files collecting than most will ever know, lol. BTW, I'm missing one of a four card Korean DVD card set.

I only have a few of the error cards. I meant to pursue them but in this everything older then a day is ancient history society things like that keep getting pushed back, added to my want list, and then I find I don't have the time to go after them because 10 more new and interesting items have been added. But one day....!

I have been meaning to ask about a card I have (have had it almost twenty years and was dealt to me as an oddball promo or error card). It's an unnumbered Season 2 title card which should be #1 in the regular set. It does not include the Cris Carter credit. Is that the same one or is there a title card that is numbered and also missing the Carter credit? If someone can show a scan of the error and corrected card of than, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Jess

On card 36, did they change the front photo or the back photo ?

On card 36,the error card has the wrong photo on the back.

I also have that Season Two uncredited title card and I believe that is the only variant.
