I have a couple like this with Sweet Caporal backs and I believe when you see the whole back that looks like that, it's a storage issue probably from long ago with moisture causing the transfer to a pile of cards. Wet sheet transfers aren't as fuzzy as storage transfers and seemed to be a big problem with Tolstoi cards, but many other brands can be found as well. To get the big bucks, you need the image to be facing the right way and actually printed on the front, not transferred there through moisture/wet sheet.

Agree with this. It's a transfer all right, just not a WST. Moisture got to it.
