Gilbert MainesGlen V: I will include both Tobins in the H891 designation, if no one objects.
Your mention of the Duke Talk of the Diamond was because you would like the Terrors of America included in that designation? Or what?
I particularly am pleased that the Early Candy and Gum issues have reached into the 19th century to claim G&B as theirs, I certainly have no objection to the H designation staking a similarly justified claim on the Syracuse Stars.
Regarding the similarity between No.7 and Diamond S Cigar issues: these sets appear to differ only on their backs. Id like to use the same designation for both, and incorporate that philosophy in other catagories where the main difference is on the card's back.
I do note that the choices become tricky when the same fronts are used among different manufacturer types (D & E, for example).
