Any idea why there would be what looks like a target stamped on the reverse side? Sorry, wasn't able to upload image. Don't know why it would be over 300KB.

General answer would be because someone wanted to stamp it there.

Welcome to the CCF, Leconomos ....

Use the "image optimizer" to adjust and downsize your pic. It takes a little bit of practice, but it's a great tool.

Then, we can offer some possible answers to your question. With pieces such as you describe, it's often guesswork, even with the pics.

Using the Image Optimizer takes experience and a bit of trial-and-error. Remember, you need to save your re-sized images to your computer first before uploading them to the forum.
