I appreciate everyone's help. I know this isn't going to turn out to be a valuable printing error, but I really enjoy delving into odd items such as this.

That did not leave the Topps factory looking like that.

There is no print pattern to the flesh color. Take the card and tilt it under light like when looking for surface imperfections. Do it under several different types of light like outside, CFL, LED, and halogen bulbs. One of them will make it very obvious it was added. Strangely sometimes a poorly lit room works great also.
