2nd Series No Copyright

I do recall this was discussed years back
The speculation I favored, and probably why I remember it, is that in these old sets the printers did 5 ink runs, and not just 4.
The standard four to cover the CYMK of the image, and then there was a fifth Inking of black again, but this one applied the copyright text and re-did the border, but sometimes some text or shading in the image as well.

This has come up in the past, no luck finding the topic with a search?  I have seen some faded/light series 2 copyrights so I assume some of these have just rubbed off completely.

George Wright did a whole thing about these on Facebook a couple of weeks ago. He explained it to a guy who had a 2nd series blue line with no copyright.  You can ask him
