Default W555 Date of Issue (a hypothesis)

Posted By: Todd (nolemmings)

Andy is right about the issue date of the m101-5s, as was discussed in another thread some time back. Still, I believe there is evidence that the m101-4s may also have been issued in 1916, perhaps later in the year as an "update" set. I do not have my catalogues/ "big books" with me at work, but I believe the Bucyreus (sp?) sheet contains the entire m101-4 set on one sheet that is plainly and expressly marked 1916. I have not seen that sheet to verify whether it does in fact show m101-4s or 5s, but if the former, then doesn't that imply an issue date of 1916 for m101-4?
