That is fascinating to me.

I think I may have cornered the market on the E-Unc Lou Gertenrich's

Here are my examples (all but one with the typical spot of loss on back)...

I have Elmer Miller and my back has the same exact area of paper loss. Makes me wonder if all of these cards came from the same scrap book
