Thanks Jason....that is what I was referring to. You also see some cards that have been glued in a spot at the center...that are missing color right where the glue was.

We have seen adhesives remove both single and multiple colors.

We both agree that your card was likely glued into an album...and shows the obvious evidence of such...back staining with sharp corners.

Two possibilities exist...the color was missing before it was pasted in or a frequently seen chemical reaction caused the missing color. Do I know that it was the adhesive that caused the missing colors? No I don't...but I don't think you know that it wasn't the adhesive either.

It's a fun card, it looks cool...I bid $200 on it and was prepared to go higher...and backed off when I noticed the staining.

Good luck.

Mac
