Plus-

backs
red ink
glows bright under UV
no reaction to UV
"glows" very dark red under UV (Actually fairly tough)

cardboard
Normal
No reaction to UV
Mild reaction to UV - possibly fiber transfer, but seems far too common

Lighter cardboard more tan than usual

Fronts-
Some clearcoat reacts to UV as greenish -haven't studied it much.


The back ink UV reaction is there to some degree in at least 85,86, 88 and 91 although none are as bright as the 91s


I have a couple of the manager back design players cards as well as a manager card with a players back design. I believe they're partial wrong backs. In other words they got the wrong reddish ink, but the correct black ink.

The single orange border is a printing flaw. One I'd collect as it's a bit unusual but not a variation. (Others might call it a variation)
