The answer is damage to the corner at top right was caused by the printing machinery that resulted what is usually called a corner pull. Seen most on one of the top corners, usually the right one and almost always in the first series of 1-80. The flaw in the machinery was corrected later in the printing process.

Maybe I'm missing something, and please correct me if so, but since the cards were printed on sheets, they had no corners until sometime after the printing process, so did your source actually mean the cutting equipment, or perhaps the final collating or packaging of the cards?
