Adventure Comics 373

Adventure Comics #373: there is some kind of printing defect on the back. I say original printing because it is not rough or wavy (as if tape pull or water). Smooth like the rest of the cover, just not there.

I've seen this before, and believe it's a printing defect - Hopefully DiceX will chime in. Perhaps you should post it in the Dice's sticky thread in the restoration forum?

Okay. Thanks!

That is a water or blanket wash drip from when they were starting the press.

It gets on the paper and prevents the ink from sticking to it.

 

Production related.

 

 

definatly a drip, more than likely on the image roller and not the paper. the plates don't touch the paper, they tranfer the ink to the image roller and the image roller makes contact with the actual paper, in this case it appears a solvent was dripped onto the image roller as this cover went through. after a few rotations its back to normal.

 

Thanks guys! Ya gotta love this place.
