Yes.

There are other shifts, but only if the plates are made wrong. That's very uncommon.

As a long time collector I have to say how much I love the diversity of peoples' collecting. I say this purely as an observation; years ago, such out of register cards were the one's you left on the table. Now they're revered and sought after. Cool stuff. Thanks to all for sharing.

That Hartsel no-right-bottom-shift is something else.

Some extremely interesting theories.....thanks so much for the input everyone, especially steve....

this card still has me on the fence.....has anyone figured out the "b" and "g"??? pencil writing??? blue/green shift???

card is too extreme for normal factory production color shifts....still don't see too many FACTORY issued color shifts this dramatic....

i'm still super confused.....card has a "funny" trim....

printer note??

"green" 00

"blue" 1


plate designation???steve??

i'm ready to send the card to you steve and have in broken out of the tomb to see if we can get anymore insight

No need to bust it out. I can get decent 1200dpi scans right through the slab. Plus getting a look with the 40X magnifier if my daughter hasn't run off with it.
