Default 52 Mantle 311 characteristic noticed

Probably pointed out before but I have not seen it mentioned when I researched what characteristics made for a real 311 Mantle Topps.
On the version that has the missing pixil, I've noticed on the back of every authentic card that the "a" in the word games under the red Major and Minor League Batting records did not print out fully.
In looking at close reprints the "a" is clear. I've also noticed the missing pixil is not as pronounced on some graded cards as others.
