Default Needing T200 Expertise--

I just bought a Cincinnatti team card on ebay. While I'm 99% sure that it's real, I'd like confirmation as it has some oddities to it.
I've been collecting T200's for a few years, and I have a dozen now. This looks just like the rest, even under the microscope, with one big difference:

It goes out of focus in several spots and has a strange bottom right hand corner/right hand border. I figured the ebay picture was a curled or damaged corner/poor photo or scan, but these anomalies [the bad crease/crack going from Clark through Groh, notwithstanding] are an actual part of the card/photograph.

I've never noticed such on any other card. What I'm thinking is that it was a poor factory print and without much quality control they let it go through. Can anyone tell me if that's likely the case?

Thanks.

Doug
