Back with another cool Maher. This card originated from the same collection as the Maher and Sharkey 'sans red' cards above. This one shows a bright image of another card's reverse on the front, though a bit misaligned. Always enjoy finding little oddities like these

Miscut with name at top card of Donovan. The text at top shows the bottom of the "of To Day" line, showing that like the other ATC sets, at least some sheets had multiple of the same card stacked on top of each other in a column

This is not the only "yellow streak" printing error in T220, but the first Fitzsimmons I've seen. Card on the left is the regular card, the card on the right has yellow ink splotched over much of the lower half of the card.

Found another blank back, this one of Harry Porter. That makes 3 blank backs I am aware of, Handy and Porter, both handcut from series 1, and James Rector from the 3rd series. I suspect Handy and Porter were from the same sheet here, and thus intended to have Mecca backs. Both are fully printed and show no sign of being proofs or anything like that; just an unfinished sheet that escaped the factory and got cut up by hand.

Nice!

Nice Blank Back G! have not run across one yet :-(
I did snag a nice Loughry with a printing plate scratch or hair on the front (it is not a crease) you can see the ink bleed across the line. It also has a sweet top of adjacent card cut across the bottom on the back side! TTYL! Cliff Attachment 398296 Attachment 398297 Attachment 398298 |

Another H J Handy oddity. I noticed the wet sheet transfer on the top when I got it but then noticed another transfer at the bottom that is hard to see in the scan. I was able to pull more detail out by playing with the contrast. I don't think I have ever seen a card with 2 transfers before.

After playing with the card some more I was able to pull a little more detail on the transfer and found out which card left the upside down transfer. It is from the James J. Jefferies card. I can make out 3 1901s on the left and the round numbers 25, 23, and 4 on the right.

Here's another contribution, though I can't yet make out what the text is on the first Klaus in upper left to ID what back is showing. A small oddity here, these 3 Klaus cards are all Factory 30 backs. While breaks in the thin black border on back are ubiquitous throughout the set, Klaus has a recurring print defect (RPD) on the front, with these two gaps in the upper right. I only observed this recently and have not yet seen it on a factory 649 card. There's a few RPD's in T1218, the McGrath 'finger splotch' shown previously in this thread being the only really cool one, I think. Would be interested in your guys' Klaus cards, if they do or do not have this border gap and which factory(ies). |
