1st....the 350 series comprises 208 subjects + the 6 super-prints** + Demmitt & O'Hara (St Louis vars.) = 216 Subjects

**NOTE....the 6 super-prints are by initial design 350 series cards. We know this since their American Beauty backs are
the FRAME version.
Subsequently, American Lithographic decided to extend these 6 subjects into the 460 series.

I strongly believe that "12" is the common denominator in the T206 production process; and, I appreciate your support of
this theory.
The number of cards across a row on the printed sheet is dictated by the printing press track. I've read that one popular
press track in the early 20th Century lithographic firms was 19 inches.

If true, then 12 x 1 1/2 inches = 18 inches. Add a 1/2 inch edge on each side of the sheet and it = 19 inches.


The vertical same-name phenomena that we see on T206's is the result of "repeated row" printing down the sheet.

If I understood your last paragraph correctly, I think you have alluded to this type of repeated-row printing.
