I took a photo but couldn't get it to properly highlight what I'm talking about in Photoshop. There are a couple of pieces where the paper loss flaked off more than others, but if you look at it just right there's a definite distinct diagonal pattern to it.

Anyone else know what I'm talking about and perhaps have a card that shows it well in a scan?
My wife calls them stretch marks. Now I can tell her they're pack lines.

p.s. If you don't hear from me in a while, you'll know why.
