Brian,

Just wanted to point out that the 2 black Old Mill overprints with the black bar confirmed to date are both factory cut. In fact, they are both graded PSA 4.

I have also been told by the owner of the brown SL Old Mill overprint(1 red bar) that the card measures out to standard size.

I still do not agree that these are necessarily printer's scrap. I believe that ATC may have had intentions of producing SL players with a brown Old Mill back and/or distribute them out of factory 649, but changed their minds along the way. Printer's scrap assumes that there was no rhyme or reason for producing such a card. If you look at the facts I stated in my prior post I believe you can at least see some of the rational for my thinking.

PS - I had sent an email to Scot Reader on this subject with my thoughts. I will forward to you. Please take a look at it if interested.
