Here's a listed reprint that is OC as well that clearly shows the black lines touching the blue.

Hi Dale,

I saw a PSA 5.5 that also had the black lines touching the blue, but I believe these are all fakes that got past the graders. If I was in the market for one I'd want one with the break before the blue. That seems to be to most common shared characteristic on the truly authentic ones. There are so many fakes of this card that I can easily see PSA and SGC grading some of the fakes in error.

This one just isn't that sharp, although the image is a terrible one as well. But it has a fake look to it in my opinion.
