I wonder if this holds true for all the W501 and W575-1 cards. Rhett, what thinketh you?

Great observation Val. I would like to check to see if I have some examples that backup your line spacing theories between the W501-1, W501-2, and W575-1 cards.

And just in case what John was asking is identifying W501-1 cards (formerly known just as W501), below is a W501-1 example, which all have the 'G-4-22' and card number at top border. Unless the card has had its top border cut off below the point where this possible printed info would be. Then I do not believe a W501 card can have its identification narrowed down to be specifically a W501-1 or W501-2.

Let us know anyone out there if there is some way to differentiate a W501 card in this type of scenario mentioned above.
