It's good to hear from you, it's been a while.
I added Wilhelm to this mix, since in other recent surveys, the question arose that he
was listed with only a SC350 back. For a long time (25 inputs long) thiswas so. Then,
just in this past week, 5 - P350 cards showed up (3 on Ebay & 2 via Emails to me).
So, my point is, if we were to continue this survey, an EPDG back would eventually
show up for this Wilhelm card. Recall, in the original EPDG Thread, only 1% of any
given size collection yielded an EPDG back. Does that mean we might have to wait
for a 100-card sample......No, I am sure an EPDG will show up sooner than that.
This Wilhelm card goes "deep" into the 350 Series.
John Scott, who collects T206 Dodgers with every possible back has this Wilhelm,
with an OLD MILL back. Wilhelm is certainly much more available with an assortment
of backs than the above six cards originally noted in this survey.
Speaking about these six....you also asked about Karger....this card like the other
five did not go "deep" into the 350 Series. Therefore, I am not that certain that
an EPDG back will surface for him. At the time the 350 Series was being produced,
Karger was traded to Boston, so possibly the T206 designers did not want to
continue printing this Cincinatti version with any other backs beyond the P350.
