Depends whether or not you're looking to sell, or keep within your own collection. If the lettering on your Jackie photo is embedded within the image (not sitting on top of the emulsion) it will return as either a Type III or Type IV example. This is due to the fact that in order to create multiples of that image with the lettering embedded they would have created a copy neg by shooting an existing photo with the lettering applied. What you have there is a second generation photo at best.
