Interesting that McGraw has two types of streak as well, one thick and one that is thinner. Seems like this ought to be an all or nothing error, though I suppose the red ink from this splash might have been thicker in part of the splash and therefore would have worn out at a differential rate over consecutive printings (i.e., the mark gradually shrank as the thinner parts of the splash were used up faster than the thicker parts of the splash). OR, that might all have just been a bunch of crap!
