T 206 Question

[cammb]

I have an Al Shaw Piedmont. On the Piedmont side I noticed the small triangles on either side are darkened. Same for O and R in "factory". The inside frame lines also appear to be filled in. Could this be a reprint or just some printing flaw?

That's a fairly common printing flaw where the plate got dry enough in the small areas to hold some ink.

Interesting, but not something I'd give any premium to unless it was really severe.

Nice card, even with the stains.
