An interesting Recruit back

Patrick,

If that 240 is printed, then I find it very interesting. It just doesn't look printed to me. Sure it's not ink?

Since you typed "T206" in your post....its appropriate.

Interesting card.

Thanks for posting it.

It doesn't look like something a printer would do, just the factory number. But the ink color is the same.

Hi Rob,

It looks good to me. The color of the "240" matches exactly. There are no signs of idententation.

I can bring it to the next Socal show and let some of the others on this board examine it and chime in with their own opinions, but in my opinion it is not made by a pen. (Hope I'm not wrong! Not trying to introduce myths into card collecting!)

One other point, there are only 200 cards in this set ... but the "240" matches the factory number ... so if it is authentic, I would expect that the ones printed at a different factory would not have this number or would not have any number.

Like I said, this is the only one I won, so no clue if others have teh numbers or not.

Cheers,
Patrick

If the back was centered only a small portion of the 240 would show up on the card.

could've been some sort of printers mark that would have been on the plate before printing but would have been cut off when finished (had registration been alright...)
