(I also worked in a print shop, one that cross trained us so I eventually got to do each step in the process for a short time. Not much had really changed between 1910 and the 1980-81)

I will say right now I do not believe it is real but I can be convinced by something more than guessing about how it could have happened then concluding it is real for that reason. I would like to see a full front scan before. I mean, I think that is warranted before carving it in stone as real right?
