I recently acquired this card in a group and was wondering what everyone thought. The yellow sky and green grass are barely visible. At first I thought it was faded from sunlight, but the blue of the jersey and flesh of his are quite vibrant. The card doesn't smell like bleach, I learned from here to check that. I also thought maybe a pencil eraser of some kind, but I don't see any streaks or changes in the texture of the card. Any ideas???

I'm guessing some sort of solvent was used with possibly a q-tip? I can't be that lucky to find a legit color mishap.



All thoughts as to how this card got this way are appreciated!
Best regards,
