Bright yellow "printer's scrap" of George Hunter another example of a card missing what appears to be several color passes yet hand cut from a sheet with a printed back. While the image of Hunter is clear and well-defined the lack of several color passes has removed the depth from the image as well as the color from the sky and grass in the background. This collection includes the PSA GOOD+ 2.5 example that is accurately printed as a reference point and a display aid. Print scraps are highly coveted among T206 collectors due to their rarity and because they help explain the print process of this fantastic prewar card issue.
