Default T206 Sheets

Posted By: ChiSoxFan

I know that no uncut sheets have ever been found for T206, so on several occasions I have thought about trying to reconstruct sheets based on mis-cut cards.

When thinking more about this, would you want to compare same backs? Does anyone know if the same fronts were printed on a Piedmont 350 as a Carolina Brights as a Sweet Caporal Series 350 (regardless of factory)?

Does anyone know if sheets were more than 5 cards wide, as shown on the Wagner strip? If this is the case, then would a Sweet Caporal Series 150 w/ Fact. 649 Overprint sheet have at least one "double printed" card (34 cards confirmed in the set)? Or is it possible that not all sheets were 5 cards wide? Using this set as an example, with only 34 cards and "regular print", then sheets could have been 17 cards wide (which is only about 24.50" wide - 17 cards times 1.4375" card width)

What other theories do you have about T206 sheets?

Has any other board members tried to reconstruct a sheet?

Let's see some mis-cut T206's, and please list the back.

Thanks,
