I am always suspicious of items like this, but I really don't know how much they were played with and how often it might have actually happened. They are far more infrequent than revenues of the same general period.

Thanks, my friend... I'm at work right now,
so I don't have any software handy to scan
and manipulate the photo... it would be of
interest to see if the perf hole sizes, in,
fact, match up... the price is fairly cheap
right now and it may stay that way... might
be worth taking a snipe at...

I don't see a problem after lining them up in Photoshop. Not abnormal for the period. That's the best I can say.

Well one thing to consider is, generally extra perfs like this are often treated with suspicion because they are relatively easy to create - so there is relatively little value added for their presence. And often not considered as "certifiable" either. Therefore there's not much incentive to create them. In other words, no big deal and more of a conversation starter rather than a valuable error - not in the same category as MISSING perfs, for example.

Well, I bought it... for $15 dolla...
(cheap enough for a conversation piece, right?)
and something else to have fun with and talk
about with everyone...

I'll post updated scans on it when it arrives,
and we can all mess around with it... lol
