Printer's mark/Crop line on front & back

We've discussed these lines before, but I thought this one was kind of interesting. Notice the bottom right corner of the Willis front scan. I've seen another example with the yellow line on the front, but never a front back combo.

That's pretty cool. What do you think this will sell for? 4-5 Mill? It is rare, ya know? :D;)

Just a little south of 4-5 Mill Mike.

It sold for $760 actually

Great card Jantz !!

Interesting. I don't think I've seen it on the front and back before. I think these cards with the crop lines could somehow be used to place the cards on a sheet, if enough from the same factory/brand/print group were put together. Like Steve's idea/project with the plate scratches.

Sincerely, Clayton

I was being serious about it being rare. I've never seen a front/back printer's crop line before...pretty awesome. Where did the card sell at?

Mike - I was cruising Ebay earlier looking at newly listed T206s. Spotted a Willis with a line on the back, so I decided to check some completed auctions to see if I could find another. Thats when I found the combo Willis in my initial post.

Clayton - I agree. They're like pieces to a puzzle. Sooner or later they are going to start to fit together.
