Hello Going through a set of 1976 Hostess and noticed that a few cards had Brown Ink instead of black. Further investigation found a few uncut panels with both brown and black ink variations. Is there a list of all the cards that have this variation?
Thanks
Jonathan

Dave Thank You for posting the links. I would say a big help but Just like Many of the original posters I see that trying to complete master Hostess sets is not as one would say "A Piece Of Cake" But if I can resist the urge to send my sets into a PSA I think I can piece a full set together without busting the bank. Thanks again for your help .

Regards
Jonathan

I bought a fairly large box of singles and panels from a shop a few years back and know there were a bunch of brown print back cards. I think they were all from the same year, but would have to go back to the box to verify.
