You wouldn’t happen to have a black light, would you? It would be interesting to put a black light on the 47/100 once you get it.

A halogen light works great with black ink. It is kinda like colored ink with a black light. Usually added black ink will have a greyish look instead of black like real printers ink.

Gotta play Devil's advocate here.
Although the "47" seems to be under the "100" at first glance, I dare say it's probably an optical illusion. A magic marker written on top of the red ink would look like that, because the red ink is a bit 'slippery' (for lack of a better word) and the black wouldn't fully cover it. Another thing, if the black was truly under the red, why does the black show through it? That wouldn't happen so easily to a red so bold and thick. Plus, the "47" exhibits the typical 'bleeding' of magic marker writing on non-glossy cardboard. IMG_3150.jpg

Thanks for all of your knowledge. Will hit it with a black light when it comes in and report back my findings. Either way I’m happy with my purchase and it’s a cool unique 1 of a kind maris that cost me PSA 5 money.

The only thing I don't really agree with is that black under red wouldn't show through. Topps often used inks that weren't all that opaque. The the typical order is to have black ink last Because it readily covers other colors. Here you can see off to the left how some covered red shows through the black. If they were reversed, we would see that too. (find a 1981 fleer star sticker that's light blue, and you'll see what I mean. All of mine have the light blue over the black.) It's almost certainly marker, but looked a little odd. |
