Interesting T206 Heinie Wagner with missing team name

Simply erased. Look at the black border directly above the name. It shows signs of erasure as well. If it was simply missing the team name BOSTON, the border would still be black and consistent....

Thanks for the responses, guys. I did notice the lighter border line in that area and thought that may signify some kind of erasure of the name. I'm not sure how this would be accomplished though in a way that would not remove the surface layer of paper and would leave no trace at all of the original ink. I know that Yankees fans will go to some pretty extreme measures sometimes though

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this is not an error. The name is missing b/c the thin white surface layer is gone, could be erased or could have come off on the way to arriving in its current state. If you look closely you can see above the Wagner is it white, then a little less white around the Wagner where the name looks a little thin, and then fairly tan to the right of Wagner where the white surface, and everything on it, is gone. I also don't think it is missing red, it looks more like a condition-related fading problem to me (but I am a tough graded there as I never believe any missing ink card in rough shape, with paper loss or glue residue on the back, or that has any overall fading on the front.)

Maybe it's just our monitor's brightness setting, or maybe it's just our cataracts fooling us, but we swear we can see
the faintest, barely perceptible trace of the BO in Boston right where it should be, as much lighter than the comma
as the comma is compared to the R in Wagner.
Regardless if we're delusional about that, we agree it's all the fault of an erasure.
