T206 Cobb (Red) Polar Bear back inking question
We recently purchased another fresh collection of T206's out of Maryland and while reviewing them, I noticed that one of the Cobb cardss had a unique characteristic to the reverse.
I've added some images of the T206 Cobb Red Portrait with a Polar Bear ad back. It appears that the external ornate portion of the blue ink border is minimal to lacking, almost an outline, around the perimeter of the card (I've also added a blown up image) and also appears a bit darker than the standard PB back. Have others seen this sort of anomaly before, and if so, how common is it?    Is this something that would be considered a detriment or something that would garner a premium? Not trying to offer it to the board, but just trying to gather a bit of information from those far more informed than I. I would love to hear everyone's opinion on the card.

From what I've seen they're not super, super common. But they do pop up for sale and I've seen them on eBay on occasion - some from sellers who pointed it out and some that didn't.
While I've seen people asking a premium for them, I am unaware of any sales for significantly bigger amounts. Maybe someone has a record of one selling for big money but I've never seen it.

From the thread referenced it looks like a mfg situation. Otherwise it looks like someone tried to erase that black border. Had I not been aware of the other thread, or collected PBs, I wouldn't have known they came that way. Neat thread referenced too.

I have seen PBs like this before. I usually attribute it to a poorly-inked and/or worn out blanket (used to print the cards) though I am not an expert so that might not be correct. Perhaps Steve B will weigh in.
