Posted By: <b>Zach Rice</b><p>It is missing ink, imo. It also appears to be handcut, maybe from a goof up print ? This card along with a T206 Plank with a completely white background were both auctioned off in the Halper sale. Edited to add a picture:<br /><img src="http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m84/mzm55cards/t206splanks.jpg">

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>It is missing color. I remember it from the time I worked on the Halper collection. It missed one of the color passes, and is a distinct variation.
