T206 Marquard "White Lines"
I have a T206 Marquard (Hands at Side) with an EPDG back that exhibits two near horizontal, near parallel white lines in the blue sky near the left border. I thought these were scratches until I saw Bob O'Brien's recent BST post offering a Marquard (HAS) specimen having the same white lines. Notably, Bob's card also has an EPDG back--which makes me think these white lines might be found on ALL Marquard (HAS) examples with the EPDG back, but NOT appear on any Marquard (HAS) cards that have other (i.e., non-EPDG) backs. Recognizing that these white lines are not a major distinguishing feature, I am still curious to know if anyone (1) has an EPDG copy WITHOUT the white lines and/or (2) has a non-EPDG copy WITH the white lines. Thanks. Scot
