I haven't seen it, no. But Topps later blew up that image for one of their Archives sets and it looks to me like one of Topps' airbrushed images. If it is an airbrush job, and being as they used to do that directly on the negatives (or transparencies or whatever), its likely you'll never see what the original image looked like. Just sayin'.
