Maybe. I've considered that possibility based on the lighter area below the word "subjects" where it might have been glued/putty'd to a page or something. There's no visible residue under magnification, just a slight discoloration.
But, again, it's presumption. Discoloration is typical for every 115 year old card.
Here's a 3 that I recently bought... now *that* is back staining!
