I was going to say that the beater simply has less red, but then I noticed that the right cheek seems to protrude out more.

Hi Trae,
Good eye. There's another example (besides yours) of what I think may be the "wide format" Wiltse--also a Piedmont 150--in eBay completed listings at: http://cgi.ebay.com/HOOKS-WILTSE-No-...item58873ed06b Maybe you can work your web developer magic and superimpose this possible second example on yours to confirm? Starting to wonder if ALC may have done a touch-up job on Hooks early in the process ... Scot Last edited by sreader3; 02-12-2011 at 03:09 PM. |

I'm not so sure about the cheek and shoulder, they measure the same doing some quick on screen measurements. I think those are just optical illusions.
It is either missing one of the red passes, or has a very different halftone red. I also think it's missing a different color, probably blue. Scans of the areas where the uniform lines are missing of weak at a high resolution like 800 dpi would make that clear Steve B |

Thanks, Tim, but I was asking if anyone had the ghostly/no neck line/"wide" version with a different back (or series especially).

Your beater is missing the pink layer of ink. It either wasn't applied or it is completely faded away.

Well, It does have blue. Interesting. The nicer one you have is darker green so I thought the blue might be missing as well as some of the red. The Ebay one is similar, but there may be a few tiny differences betwen the two.
The Ebay one has much more red so that eliminates a red pass being altogether missing. On the Ebay scan it's just not quite high enough resolution to pick up the details of the screening. (Dot pattern) Do you have a high res scan of the nice one? That would be an interesting comparison. Steve B |
