Is this a variation or merely a faded card?

I have never seen a Plank so light.

PSA says it's missing color so it must not be faded

It is missing ink, imo. It also appears to be handcut, maybe from a goof up print ? This card along with a T206 Plank with a completely white background were both auctioned off in the Halper sale. Edited to add a picture:

It is missing color. I remember it from the time I worked on the Halper collection. It missed one of the color passes, and is a distinct variation.

My opinion is that it is printers scrap - also explaining the 'trimmed' description.
