In some T206 cards, it almost seems like the ink is under another thin layer of clear paper, because you can see the cross-lines in the eyes of the players, if you look through a magnifying glass. American Litho did one hell of a job.

I believe Ted Z has commented on this or a similar phenomena in one of the T206 Printing theory threads from the old board.
