The following proofs are printed in black ink on cards that resemble, but are different from the regularly issued cards. They were probably printed from the typographed die, or a heavy impression from the plate, as the shape of the design shows clearly on the back when held nearly parallel with a strong light, even on the thickest cards. This impression is not generally visible on regularly issued cards.
