T206 WST vs Bleed Through

[Craig M]

Looking for thoughts and theories on how to determine ink that is bleeding through or if all are wet sheet transfers?

Included is my Bates card which clearly shows the Sweet Cap WST as it runs across his cap.

On the other hand, my Chance with an Old Mill reverse that I picked up at the recent Cow Palace Show last month for $30 doesn't show the Old Mill running across his forehead. Is this simply just the black ink bleeding through the back?

Thanks for your help....Craig
