I don't have any wet sheet transfer cards but how is the ghost image facing the wrong way?

It wouldn't make any difference if it is a bleed through or wet sheet transfer the image on card back would be facing the same direction. I could be wrong and it wouldn't be the first time.

Hey Ben
As I looked at it earlier I was thinking it was the wrong direction. Now, after a few more cups of coffee, not so sure. It is interesting nonetheless and that is why I got it. Here are some more strips too...a hodgepodge .

That's what I was thinking. Either way it came from an image that's facing the same way, so the direction of it shouldn't depend on whether it was transferred from the front or the back.

Leon,
Can you post a picture of the back of that W516 Nehf?

I can go dig it out Ed, but curious of your curiosity? And after checking my list of cards owned I might not own it anymore as it's not there. This scan was taken from my website and those scans are only 99% accurate. I could have been lazy and not updated the scan when I sold or traded it. I have to check another card too so I will see about it. If I have it, it's in one of many boxes and stacks.
