That is why I believe it is a rubber stamp. If you have ever used one you know that the ink attaches to the stamp in different thicknesses. On points or edges you can have a lot more ink and when you stamp it there will be those blobs. It is visible on all three tines of the e. Also, the face of a rubber stamp can be partly concave. As you stamp there will still be ink on the edges, but the concave part will not get as much ink so it will be lighter. That is noticeable on the G.
