To be fair ! I think there could be some printed watermark numbers (To me -101  in the small area you pointed out) or similar and if it relates to anything ? it maybe a  typed stock number being nothing in relation to the other side of the card. ??? or  -just a mystery mark along with other strange images (animals ;D ;D ;D) that appear to different members of Rootschat in the mush of years of grime.  :-\

After adding some filters to the second image you posted, it looks to me at least that there was at one time some writing on the photo reverse. What that is now though I have no idea as it is to far gone to obtain any exact detail.

I have attached the filtered image which looks to show something that appears to be traces of black ink that is certainly more than just random marks as some look similar to defined letters. Of course I could also be wrong and could just be random marks that are playing tricks on the eyes in looking like letters.

Yes I agree. I thought there was an ID 0r 10 in the cleanup/enlargement that I did
