Very nice
The 1970 looks like it may have some Progressive Indirect Design Transfer on the reverse.
I'd like to revisit this. Could the indications be the result of the split plate effect?

I grade it Awesome.
I use them in type sets that I am making up for my great grand children (19 so far) and grand children (13). And, I think it is a sacrilege to...
