Don't know that I'm any "expert" but I'd guess he did at least little light rubbing or dabbing on that area.

That would be my non-expert guess as well.

This was one of those times where you should have left it alone.

Yes you were unnecessarily shamed repeatedly for suggesting it. Was not too hard to see the outcome. Well on the bright side at least it was not a Jackson.

OP was obviously too trigger-happy to soak that card without trying his hand on something else as was suggested, but it's his card and he says he's fine with the damage, so that's that.

Peter, how many Cracker Jacks have you held under a black light to see if they fluoresce?

Back in the late 80s, when I got back into cards, blacklights and loupes weren't in wide use at all. Now I have both, and have examined all my pre-war. If any are indeed fake, they're so good I can't tell. Good enough for me.
