Compare that photo with the example shown below. Notice the bits of red blotches in some areas of the black field, where the one on Ebay is completely black.

Here's a 10.0 one that sold on Hertitage, it also has some of the bits of red.

Why is the one on Ebay different?

 

Edit: Also notice there is no partial lettering showing of the Marvel logo on the Ebay copy, which is also different.

The error book is a result of the failure of the red foil to adhere to the book properly. As you have noted there are some with red flecks showing a partial adherence. There have been some intimations that if you can get the red foil hot enough, you can "make" an error book. Boardies have tried and failed. I consider them all suspect at this point.

 

There is a thread in the modern section on this book.
