Just wondering about printing techniques giving further insight to T206 page layout.

I was wondering if we knew what sort of printing press was used and if that could help illuminate any info about sheet size etc.

I think it's by design. If you type in "t206 beaumont" on ebay, they all look like that. My copy does as well.

i sold this mcginnity via H&S a long time ago (wish I had not)... obviously missing red. Note that the "orange" is pink/buff and yellow... the green at the bottom is for a gradient look when the red is applied. Compare to when the red was applied:

Just bought this one. Seems like another Herman was next in line.

I agree with what Er!ck said about the McGinnity. A different color partially used under the final background color would give more depth to the card's image.

I will post below another card much like the McGinnity. The red background color is slightly shifted to show the gray layer underneath. Notice above Hofman's name.

Don't worry over the McGinnity. Its in a safe place.

Of course, to make it less clear, most vertical miscuts show that each player was usually in a column either by themselves or occasionally with another player.

But that's just how they set it up, not because of the inking.

I've seen the Beaumont also and agree it could be by design. Since there are a few cards like this would it make sense that they are lined up in the same column?

Don't think so... see my previous post with the McGinnity.
