Default FYI....T206 DRUM confirmed list

DRUM connection with AMERICAN BEAUTY 350 cards. The following rules can be used as a guide for determining which T206's are found with the DRUM back.

350-only series

There are 190 subjects in this series that were printed with the AMERICAN BEAUTY 350 frame back (circa..Summer of 1910). My "A-B-C-D" theory (see NOTE)
suggests that these 190 subjects were also printed with the BROAD LEAF 350, CYCLE 350 and DRUM backs. For the greater part, this has been proven true for
the BROAD LEAF 350 and CYCLE 350 cards. However....to date....only 107 subjects in the 350-only series have been found with the DRUM back. Recent DRUM
finds these past several years have added new DRUM's to this tally. Eventually, I expect that we will find the outstanding DRUM cards.

350/460 series example


350/460 series

The AMERICAN BEAUTY 350 (AB 350) cards in the 350/460 series were printed without the frame. We have confirmed 37 of the subjects in this series with this
AB 350 back. It appears that American Lithographic also printed these 37 guys with DRUM backs. To date, 34 have been confirmed with the DRUM back. The 3
outstanding guys that have yet to be discovered are......

Conroy (bat)........CONFIRMED
Mullin (bat)
Stahl (glove)




NOTE....A-B-C-D stylistic pattern
