ATTENTION VINTAGE GPK ERROR & VARIANT COLLECTORS: This is an extraordinary, museum-grade 1986 Garbage Pail Kids Series 3 matched character #110 twin error set (Snooty Sam & U.S. Arnie). Sourced from the exact same outer perimeter coordinate of the master uncut printing sheet, this spectacular pair showcases an incredible convergence of multi-axis factory defects.Highlighting the lot is a spectacular, dual-sided Plate Registration Failure displaying a high-visibility Blue/Pink composite alignment line running side-by-side on the front top margin of Snooty Sam, paired with a matching Blue/Yellow composite alignment line on the back bottom margin of U.S. Arnie. Furthermore, this lot features a major technical discovery: an identical Shared Master Plate-Flaw Print Hickey (a sharp blue starburst defect) emanating downward from the front namebadge of BOTH the \"a\" and \"b\" #110 cards—proving a systemic mechanical glitch occurred on the master base plate. This high-utility archive represents a holy grail display opportunity for serious non-sport error completists.
