It's either on a flash drive, or an external hard drive(that I lost the power cord too). Certain I have an image that I'll be able to provide at some point. The red on the back was nearly as bright as the red on the front. Not that it wasn't a wet sheet transfer, but not like any others I have. The back + the off register + the hand cut. I don't think anyone would classify it as other than scrap. I sold it to a buyer in Charlotte, NC with a lot of other cards ranging from pre-war to late 60's. Maybe a board member if you're reading this. I met the guy at a show and we connected that way and he came out to the house. No emails to refer back to. I never considered it a high value card and valued it less than $200 at that time. You know this story all too well - all the cards you wished you didn't sell.
