T206 w/Sweet Caporal Overprint back question
 

Why does this card have two factories on it? Is this normal? What is this back considered? There is a factory 30 and factory 42 listed. Or is the overprint line just not centered properly?

The overprint is off center to the left, and a little low. Those squiggly lines should obscure the factory designation inside the frame, and the factory 42 printing should be centered under the frame.

Thanks Frank

You're quite welcome, David. That's an interesting card. If there's one like that, there must have been others.

So if my limited knowledge is correct, this should be a factory 42 overprint correct?

Neat card and something those nutty T206 guys love

I had the scan available of this card because of my intent on selling it. I know this isn't BST but if anyone is interested in this card can message me and I'll take offers on it. I have since sold this card.

Frank explicates this very well, even with his technical term 'squiggly' :).
as a T206 nut, i must say that the 'off-centered' attempt at camouflage makes this card most interesting, 'tho i have seen others over the years.
congrats, David.

best,
