T206 Help
I just got this card in today's mail. I won it off e-bay last week. Although I already had Sovereign 350 buyback of card, so it doesn't count towards my set. I thought miss cut was cool. I noticed when I got card, it has a small red mark (line) in white top border. It shows as black on scan but it is red. Is this a printers mark or something else. Sorry if it is just a printers mark, but I don't have another card with printer marks to compare it to... Thanks

probably
It is indicative of a printers mark...Probably hard to say for sure though...

That's really close to the design for an intentional printers mark. Usually those are kept in the part ofthe sheet that gets cut off.
There's lots of unintentional printers marks, and I'd figure it's one of those. Pretty cool. I would think this card was from the top edge of the sheet. Anyone else have that mark? There should be a few out there. Steve B |

Darn double post....May as well make something of it.
I find this sort of printers mark pretty interesting, I collect them when I can even on modern cards. Steve B Last edited by steve B; 09-16-2010 at 04:31 PM. Reason: Changing double post mistake |

t206 help
Ralph
Leon and steve are right...indicative of a printers mark, usually cut off by pressman and used to align sheets....these print marks show up in a variety of spots on the fronts and backs of some t206, different sizes....they are quite tuff imo, on the fronts they are usually brownish/black or the exact shade of the name font interesting how yours is redish, but possible...imo...your card noting the mark would put a premuim of 100 bucks or so...not sure about the buy back status tho...but a nice card and a keeper!!congrats!! when the show up on the backs of the cards(usually in a corner as an "L" shape and the same back color as the card), they are refered to as printers "crop" marks, where the printer prob aligned the sheets for cutting...i have "crop" marks on pieds, sweet caps, polar bear...so far...if your lucky you can find them scouring ebay fairly cheap, other rare times they are advertised as such and will sell for a premuim, since most where "cut off" and never made it onto an actual card, usually the miscuts show them...i will try to dig up a few scan, but my scans are aweful.. peace johnny |
