The GOOD 2 grade assessed by PSA on this Hobe Ferris T206 card can only be a result of the print flaw it clearly exhibits the washed-out image of the card clearly the result of at least one and possibly more ink passes missing. It is theorized that T206 cards were printed with six color passes yellow being the first and yet some yellow appears to be missing in the upper-left corner of the card. The red pass also appears to be lacking as some of the image depth and darker coloring is also impacted by the missing ink. The missing ink is noted by PSA on the grading label the numerical grade an indication that the company believes the missing ink is a result of a flaw with the printing process itself and not with some post-manufacturing alteration. T206 print anomalies are highly collectible and quite interesting and this is no exception.
