Sometimes wet sheet transfers can bring a premium, but I believe it comes down to an individual's preference.
A collector may wish to pay a premium if he chooses, but back brands like Old Mill, Tolstoi and Sweet Caporal are fairly common with wet sheet transfers. A good example is the two Abbaticchios that Eric & I have posted. If we each have one, then I'm sure there are more.
In some cases though when a wet sheet transfer is truly unique or extreme, a premium might be in order.
A lot of Polar Bear back T206s have mild wet sheet transfers. Most appear as just a blue line running along a white border or two. In an extreme case though, like the Needham I have shown, I would be willing to pay a premium, while other collectors may dislike the card because the wet sheet transfer distracts from the overall front image.
Hope this helps

**added after reading Johnny's post** - I was jumping back & forth between Ebay & Net54 and didn't get to read Johnny's post until I posted mine. I concur with what Johhny has said. A premium can depend on the factors of the wet sheet transfer.
