Old Mill Brown back?
 

Posted By: <b>Paul P</b><p>I ran across a Southern Leaguer with an Old Mill back. it is a Factory 25 2nd district VA. Maybe it is me hopeing against hope but it looks as if it has a brown back which is supposed to be very rare. I put a scan on so those of you with better eyes than I could tell me if it is or is not. Thanks a lot Paul<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1101593749.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Scott</b><p>There is no doubt that they are a different ink mix than the normal "black", but they are not brown Old Mills. I bought a "find" of about 50 Old Mill backs a few years ago, and there were 2 of the brownish ones. Since then I've seen a "real" brown one and they are as distinguishable as comparing a brown Hindu to a black Old Mill.
