If it was under every row, any card even slightly off-center top/bottom would show this line, looking at where it is placed on this card?

Yes, top and bottom. It may not be very card, but it's pretty close. I need to either find my list or rewrite it so I can post it. I was working on the first series for a while, but didn't really keep after it.

I don’t doubt they can be found on near every card. If the line is between every row on the sheet, then any copy of any card that is off center top to bottom would show the line. Most top to bottom off center cards don’t show the line however, so I think this line was not on all the sheets between every row. Otherwise, all these off center cards would have them in the same location

That is correct. They usually don't show on well centered cards. And they aren't on every sheet. And the line can be different, so it changed at times. (I also had consistent copies of several of the lines, so if there are two different lines that's a genuine difference.

Not necessarily a variation, but interesting look due to the lack of black on this pass.

Now that Bevans is the real deal. Blackless is beautiful.



With all due respect, guys, a stray print booger here or there is amateur stuff. Let's see some f***ups!

Not mine, I wish it was. ETA, someone posted it on CU a few years ago, said he pulled it out of a pack in 1970 and has it to this day.

This one is tame compared to those two.
