Unusual Answer from eBay Seller

[deweyinthehall]

For the record, I have asked other sellers, small as well as some large well-known ones, in the past whether some item or other was on the card or a product of the image. In my experience, they reply immediately with something like "Sorry - definitely the image...here's another view" or "yeah, that's a printing flaw". I assumed that if he had the card in-hand, even in a slab, it would relatively easy to decipher.



Suggesting I go around looking at eBay at other copies of the card was one of the oddest responses I had ever received from any seller on eBay in 20+ years. What if I looked at 1000 other copies? It would have no bearing on whether this particular specimen was marked or not.

In any event based upon the helpful scan above, I will be passing on the card. Thanks to the poster for that.
