A larger than perfect cut Ryan MB can have white on both sides (the vehicle card above, Ernie Ladd below), the sheets have no 'extra' burlap on those sides so even a tiny fraction of cutting off will show white. It is often a warning sign of trimming if a Ryan doesn't have any white border.
The black line is not known to print defect dorks (not to my knowledge at least, who am I to speak for everyone...) and doing a quick search online, I can't find a picture of one with it.
The pictures are not good enough to really judge. If it is a legit print defect it wouldn't be weird to have 2 of them if they came from the same box originally (a defect usually occurs on X numbers of sheets run before it is fixed or something changes on the press to accidentally fix it) and this is an old collection. It certainly doesn't seem to be a common defect though.
I would be a bit wary, more for the black line.
EDIT: The white border at top is too close to the black frame around Ryan to be real (unless it is glare or something). I will amend my opinion to say this is a fake instead of maybe a fake.
