Some of the Curator early SA Marvels came with distributor overspray along their top edges:

Overspray = ink

Now ink is removable without restoration?

No.  You're confusing another 9.6 copy with the Curator copy.

Are these the same copies?  The bottom new label copy has a bit of space between the bottom edge and Hawkeye's toe, whereas the old label copy does not.

They are definitely the same copy

How to explain the additional space under Hawkeye's toe?

If it were the other way around, with the space being there with the old slab and now gone with the new slab, then perhaps it could be attributed to micro-trimming.  But it would appear that more paper has been added in the new slab?

I'm guessing that the paper was slightly curled in the old scan before it was pressed for the new scan.

I can see the overspray removed, and the wrap looks the same, but hawkeyes boot on the bottom right has a whitespace gap where the 9.2 doesn't have one

Only if the background is white?  Or will that work OK against another color?

White is much, much, much easier. Anything else you would likely remove some of the underlying or surrounding color.

Just stumbled upon this thread -
I did not know there are so many multiple Curator copies of #57 - very cool! 🤘
