Responding to your......
"Is this written down anywhere else (other than your Bell labs trained cranium)?"

"Trained", no......but perhaps, after 29 years at Bell Labs, my mind is a "transistor"


Anyhow, I posted a thread on this forum regarding the Sweet Caporal 150/649 ovpt. cards a couple of years ago,
when I completed this sub-set.

And,regarding the Sweet Caporal 460/42 ovpt. cards..........

Offset braid
reveals "Factory 30 N.Y."

I posted a thread on this Sweet Cap Overprint some time ago. Otherwise, I'm not sure where you can find more
info on these two Sweet Caporal overstrike series.

Furthermore, I show the Johnson proof card as an example that the 55 cards of the 350/460 series were indeed
printed with the "Factory 30 N.Y." back....although the completed cards were never issued (inserted into cigar-
ette packs produced in the New York plant).



Incidently, your Sweet Caporal 460/42 overprint Bender (no trees) is a new one....that was previously unknown.
