And possibly the top right. Follow the last N in Johnson, from the bottom of the letter to the border of the card.

That line is actually a known variation of the card. But it could be that. Print snow can count as PD, and in the oversized image, it shows up really well.

This card looks like it doesn't have even borders. This is common with 1965 Mantles because of their placement on the edge of the sheet. It could be the scan, but I don't think so.

Sickmantz, is the card easily removed from the holder? We all definitely need to see a scan of it (while 'flattened' insider of a scanner) to be able to separate reality from optical illusion, you know?

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

You guys' knowledge of cards is insane. If I ever get the inclination to have my stuff graded, rather than PSA, I would prefer you guys do it. Why don't you buy some slabs and flips? Think about it.
