Walsh is definitely wider at the top and the bottom than a regular T209-1, and it has an uneven left border, all suggesting that it was cut from a strip, or maybe a sheet -- the top and bottom edges also look uneven, now that I look more closely. On the back, Walsh has what looks like a wet-sheet transfer of the bottom half of the blue color from Booles in the same set, while Fullenwider has a factory stamp -- I'm not sure how common those are.
So, all you wet-sheet-transfer and scrap fans, what do I have here? I bought these cards as a pair years ago, cheap, because they were represented as badly damaged.

I heard there were 3 of the T209-1s with the blue wet sheet transfer on back and yours might be the other one
. It would go great with my two if you ever decide to sell.....I am your guy. Thanks for sharing, and yes those 2 have good value, though it's hard to say exactly how much.
