This G-Man card is unlike any other that I've ever seen . . . know why?

First correct answer wins a visit to the Mark Finn G-Man Museum, or a free ride on the Todd Riley Flea Market Express!

Correct, Richard!

And while I don't think it's any big deal (probably the printer was heavy on the black ink and it 'ran', you can see a smudging in lower righthand corner), it's kinda cool, as I can't remember seeing another one like this before.

Folks, all you guys with stacks of G-Men cards, have a look: got any more like this?

Held it obliquely in the light and looked for extra inking (like if someone 'made' an error card with a black magic marker), but can't see any sign of that.

Please contact Mark or Todd to get your prize . . .

As many of you know, the R60 G-Men series has an issue with "print lines". In my experience, it is not un-common to have some (or all) of the card number obscured. I grabbed a few from the pile that have some of the card number "missing":
