1922 Eastern Exhibit question

[birdman42]

Hi,

Do the 1922 Eastern Exhibit PC backed cards come in sepia? Are there reprints?

Thanks,

Bil

yes, they absolutely come in sepia:

Todd,

Thanks for the pics. I feel lots more comfortable with these now. The ones I'm looking at appeared good, except that I've seen them described as black & white.

The 7-8 I own are all sepia, although I too have seen them described as B&W. FYI, they are also found with an overprint address bar on the back:

The B & W exist and are about 10 x harder to find than the regular issue. They are on thinner stock and do not have the overprint address bar on the back.
