The Munson does look like sunlight damage to me; how did you rule it out?

Variants
Ben--- welcome aboard---tend to agree with John on the Munson. The Schmidt is a great item. Here is the King you mentioned
 Here is an example of what is likely light fading

Thanks guys. Glad to have found this board and look forward to sharing finds.
With the Munson, there is no fading on the other colors. Just the yellow is missing. Notice how the back of the card is extra yellow. Perhaps that sheet wasn't flipped over and the back was pressed twice on the yellow plate? I'll post pics of the other '76 green bleed backs I got along with the Schmidt. How is the name missing but the stats show? It got some black ink.

I really think that the Munson is not faded. The letters are clearly magenta (not red). Red is created during the printing process by adding yellow ink to the magenta ink. I think if it were a matter of fading due to light exposure the other inks should have faded as well to some degree. Yet you don't see that. You can also see that the photos in the card with white letters do not contain the yellow ink giving them a 'faded' look.
I'm wondering if it is a color correction proof card or just a rare error that got through quality control. Does anyone know if they made color correction proofs with the backs printed? Very cool card nonetheless.

Have you guys every seen anything like the Puckett? I collected coins for a while and reasonably knowledgeable about the minting process. Not so much with cards. Are metal plates used? Is it possible that the plate developed a crack where that top black border is?
Thanks for any insight, Ben

Printing Presses
I leave how it happens to those like Steve who know more about the print process, but I have a bunch of cards in different sets with similar recurring print defects
