This submission, WH 1003 is a repress of this, It Takes A Year, C 1003.
This submission has the original WHS-C runout matrices.
There was a second cross added to the matrix. RTI used dots in the quadrants of the etched crosses to indicate how much their contribution was. As (3) or cross with a dot in three quadrants, or both, identifies father, mother, stamper matrixing. Often stamping is identified by a cross or a cross with 1 dot. On this submission there are three dots and four dots in both crosses, each side, indicating repressing using older series stampers, WHS-C.
