Posted By: <b>Dave</b><p>Not to hijack Ted's thread but I have a T206 that has a different situation. I have a Bresnahan portrait that has a glossy look to his hair and collar only. Has anyone ever had a card that has only certain features with a glossy look to them? Thanks.

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>I don't know how many members on the board have seen Burdick collection at the Met in New York, but a lot of the T206 and T207’s look unusually glossy. It makes me wonder, since the T206’s were printed in so many differnet printing facilities, maybe some of the printers ran a higher gloss ink or smoother surface paper, which may give the apperance of glossy?<br /><br />Matt M<br />
