Previously I asked in a thread about PC photos relative to Bust Halves and @lkeigwin said that they do fairly good and/but.....

So I could not get all the colors to come out on most of my limited supply of bust halves and decided to give them a try at the ANA. Well the True Views arrived and I say thanks lkeigwin as I think they mostly worked out. Never could get any of the color to come out in the fields for this one but as I usually state I am not a photographer.

Oh, I had it marked as a 110a so let me know if I messed that up.

Any other Ugly (3) Bust Half out there?

    Thanks for the above comments. This is another one in the TV package from ANA. It is much easier to take a picture of but somehow the TV brings out more. I can see most all of these colors in hand but it is difficult to see them all at once like the TV. I have to move it around and focus to get them all. I guess that is part of why some say glamour shot.
    I had this one marked as a O108 so again let me know if I messed up.

    Hey cool another 'Ugly'. If I did my Overton correctly then they are the same O#.
    Edit: just looked at the Overton and only 1 Ugly O# so duh same #. :)
    Appears there are 2 Patched though but due to 2 different reverses used. Also it is a Patched of the Broken 3.
    Never took the time to read that I guess or forgot it.
