In what appears to be an attempt to cover up alcohol advertising, I've come across a variation of the 1991 Bowman card # 174 for Scott Lusader where the Budweiser advertisement on the Tiger Stadium scoreboard has been partially whited out as you can see on the card on the right:
The interesting thing is that I found both of these versions in factory sets that I was recently going through. I have no idea which version may be more scare. As there is only 1 Lusader card on COMC right now (with the ad showing) I don't have a representative sample to make a guess if one is harder to find than the other.
When I came across these variations, it instantly reminded me of the the 1989 Fleer Randy Johnson card with the various attempts by Fleer obscure the Marlboro sign in the background.

interesting catch. Especially both being in factory sets.... Being '91 Bowman, I'm not sure if one is more scarce or not... there's probably bajillions of both. I checked my 1998 Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards (yes, 1998, don't judge) and there's no mention of any variation.
Wow nice find. And those glasses are fantastic.
Oh wow! Awesome find. Can’t wait to see more info on this.
Great job. I think it's pretty awesome that people are discovering variations three decades later.
Maybe it's just the glare off Lusader's goggles?
