I have found a minor variation on the Sovereign back Snodgrass. I have only seen it on this back and it appears to be on all Sovereign's. The "decimal point" is missing before the "405", though not a major variation it is interesting none the less.
I also have a printing freak of this card that has a Piedmont back that is printed with "Black" ink instead of "Blue". I have been searching for many years but I have yet to find another Piedmont with this color back. I have seen many Piedmonts with "dark blue" backs over the years but no others with black ink. If I was to hazard a guess I would say that the printer might have run out of blue ink near the end of a print run. If that was the case then there should be more of these out there. Any thoughts??
