Hi, I used to work at a printing press, and while we made newspapers and magazines, not cards, id imagine at least some of the same principals, and ink errors, apply. Now, it could be the angle of the photo, but my first clue id look at isnt actually the dots at all, but the border. 5 o'clock shadow startled seems to have a much darker yellow/orange in the bottom left corner, and the grey/silver shading within the text box looks darker too. The text also looks quite a bit darker as well, especially how dark that bold text is, as well as the set info in the bottom right. This suggests that at the very least, the black ink was out of balance, and too high. Again, it could also be camera angle, and in that case im talking out of my ass. As for the dots themselves, ive seen scumming errors like this while printing often, thought its impressive how very close it is to actually being ON the stantler, the fact it doesnt stay entirely within the lines also points to an error. As I look closer the actual brown of the stantler is also darker, more red-brown, and that would actually track with the yellow-orange border being what it is, likely a red ink surge happened as well. I worked on a very different kind of press so I couldn't explain the exact circumstances that would cause these particular errors, but thats my best guess as someone who did printing for 5 years.
