Default Check-out your T206 Cobb (bat off) cards for micro PROOF marks

noticed them before.

So guys, check-out your Cobb(s) to see if these PROOF marks are consistently on all the T206 Cobb's with this pose ?

Furthermore, has anyone noticed these exact marks on other T206 subjects ? ?

Hey guys

Upon closer observation, my AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 Cobb does not have these marks. So, I'm retracting what I initially said that all 5 of my Cobb's
have these marks. Only 4 of them have the marks.
