John - while the term overprint can certainly apply to a scrap, for T206 you see the word overprint in a lot of descriptions because for some of the backs they took a completed back from one factory and ran it through the press a second time to print over the original factory name with another. You might be focusing on the front of the card and seeing registration problems because those are really common with T206 but chances are the owner is referring to the back. I have attached photos (not my cards) of one successful overprint and two where the overprint itself was misregistered so that you see the old factory, the new factory, and the block intended to cover the old factory.
Eureka! That's exactly what I was talking about! I was wondering what that was... and was about to post some examples when I started looking at those red bars... and how out of place they look. So that's what they were talking about... Thanks so much!

This place rocks... you and mrvster and everyone else have been so helpful and informative! Cheers!
