Sorry, all, but this is not a missing ink card. The tell-tale sign on the Gilbert cards is the belt region. While the other areas of red on this card had an undercoat of pink/buff, the belt region does not. Any remnant of red/pink/etc. on the belt is a fade of some sort.
The "St. Louis" area of the uniform is also a tell. There should only be one layer of color of the grey if this was missing ink. There are two: the pink/buff and a faded red.
I used this info when trying to convince SGC that a Gilbert that I had was, in fact, missing the red pass. They didn't budge. And speaking of missing... I'm really missing that McGinnity that I consigned to H&S back in the day
