T206 alignment and crop marks

[Luke]

Just got this Brown portrait. It has the most prominent alignment mark I've owned. Wondering how common these types of marks are, and would also love to see some others as I find them quite cool.

Here is one in the same spot.

Wilbur Goode is NOTORIOUSLY centered toward the bottom in almost every back.

That Dunn is awesome.

The Dunn is really helpful to me. I had always assumed that the horizontal lines were "cut here" marks, but really they were designed to set up the middles of the image. And you can actually see the remnants of those "cross hairs" on the borders of a number of the images, as if they were erased, except for the border. I assume the Dunn has a blank back?

I have always wondered why the line on the left side of this Doyle image looks like it had been drawn in by the printer. Must be he got too close when erasing the "plus sign" and erased part of the line itself. Better to leave just a little bit of it rather than risk erasing the line going forward. Really cool. Thanks for sharing.

Anybody else got a drawn in line on their Doyle, or any other card?

That is interesting why would a single card need centering marks on all four edges if it were printed on a sheet? Wouldn't that only be necessary if it were printed on a strip?
