Default T206 Southern League BROWN Old Mill's

The first press runs of T206 Southern Leaguer's were printed with Brown HINDU and OLD MILL backs.
Therefore, I can imagine that in the course of printing these two backs, there was a mix-up in the ink
application.....resulting in Brown OLD MILL's.

If this theory of mine explains the cause of these extremely rare Brown OLD MILL backs, then it would
apply to ONLY 34 of the 48 Southern League cards in the set. As, the other 14 - So. Lge. cards were
not printed during the Brown HINDU press runs.

To date, the few Southern Leaguers with Brown OLD MILL backs that I have seen are from this group
of 34..........

Bay
Bernhard
Breitenstein
Carey
Coles
Cranston
Ellam
Foster
Fritz
Greminger
Guiheen
Helm
Hickman
Hooker
Howard
Jordan
Kiernan

Lipe
