Many of these have either an extra large top or bottom border. I lean toward them being a W573 'tinted' variation because of this.

There is even another W573 variation out there not discussed in the guidebooks, which is black and white and is on carboard instead of thin paper like the normal W573's and the ones mentioned above. I believe these may be machine cut, as the several I have seem to be pretty uniform in size (which is slightly larger than the typical E121).
