.... I own or have owned close to a hundred of these salutation exhibits and I've seen many hundreds of others for sale , but I do not recall ever seeing a pronounced mis-cut on any exhibit card..they obviously had some pretty good quality control on the mechanical process .

..do any of you have a mis-cut 1939-46 Exhibit or recall seeing any ?

...if this were a T206 I'd be getting phone calls at three A.M. begging me to sell it.... You know who you are....

My 8th T206 card purchased just came in. Here's an image I did of the 8, including the Pastorius.

Oh, how I love Photoshop.

I also discovered I've been doing something incorrectly when scanning. I changed the sequence a little, and now the scans are perfect. No tweaking of levels needed at all. Just run the Canoscan toolbox, checkmark to show the display driver, use the recommended color settings, and click the blue scan button in the preview window. For some reason, it wasn't color adjusting correctly before. Now it's perfect every single time. So I'm basically rescanning my entire collection.
