The 5 W516 variations are shown here on the Old Cardboard web site: http://www.oldcardboard.com/w/w516/w...?cardsetID=818
When I compared the other 2 cards to see if either was nicer than the examples I already had, I was surprised to discover that the W516-1-1 that I just got is printed on white stock, whereas the example I already had is printed on beige stock. See scans below of these two W516-1-1 variations. Of the 5 examples on the OC web site, only the W516-1-2 is printed on white stock (and so is my W516-1-2 of WaJo). Here's my question: does anyone know if any or all of the other 4 W516 variations were also printed on both white and beige stock? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. |
Different stock was normal on strip cards from what I have seen. I know W572s and many others come on both darker and lighter stock. Here are some from my last collection though these don't really show the white vs dark stock.
