t206 "brown/yellow" printer scrap - players?

[Archive]

A fellow collector just told me that he also has the "brown yellow" version of the Elberfeld fielding card, so probably at least two sheets survived. If anyone has seen any other than the ones listed below, please let me know.

My thought is that there might have been several "brown/yellow" (red also, though hard to tell) sheets printed before the pressman realized that ink was missing (or had run out), since the Sweet Caporal ads were printed on the back. The ones I have seen are all hand-cut, so he figured out there was a problem prior to cutting and it looks like at least two sheets were saved from the scrap pile.

So far I know of:

Joss
Elberfeld (fielding) (2)
Chase (blue portrait)
Street (catching)
Harry McIntyre (Brooklyn & Chicago)
