Default Subtle differences in the T206 set's 15 repeated designs

Posted By: Mike

I'm inclined (pun intended) to agree with you, Paul - that the differences go beyond simple variations in the ink (which are there, no doubt). I'd go as far as to say that all six Super-prints are re-drawn - if not by another artist, at least by the same artist from the same pose, just "re-done".

Chase throwing is different in all same ways as Matty Dark/White Cap. His portrait has the same facial pudginess, composition and "tilt-of-the-head" differences, too, only they're slighter. Chance portrait is even closer (as are Evers and Cobb), but it just "feels" different in a "*blink*" sort of way.

I know this was discussed in some detail on one of your threads before (October) to uncertain results... maybe the Photoshop gurus that helped resolve the ghost image resolutions can work some similar magic on these "twins".
