Default T206 Bob Ewing small "w"

I don't know/remember this ever being discussed before but has anyone else noticed that some T206 Bob Ewing cards show his name printed two different ways? Specifically it appears as if there was something covering a portion of the "w" or that a smaller "w" type font was used on some cards. Here is a link to one with this variation (it almost appears as if a smaller "w" was used"):

and here is a regular one:

Any thoughts? If you look at several of his cards it almost looks as if there are different degrees to which the "w"is blocked. The first example above is one of the smallest I've seen.

Is there any premium to the smaller "w"?
