Differences in 1939-46 Salutation Exhibits

[Harford20]

Greg, I can't disagree with you. The card shown has a very nice black/white contrast. I would expect it would date from 1960 as all B&W versions with the "Printed in USA" that I have documented are from that year (listed as 1960 in the Dating Chart as well as all I have seen have the periods very close to the letters in U.S.A.).

You have a very nice card, and as you noted, although I have documented so many different versions, the only ones I have found that have a cost premium are (of course) Ted #9 Showing, and the Ted#9 Not Showing green tint version.

Please excuse my ignorance but the "showing", "not showing" refers to what exactly?

You know that deep feeling of being stupid, I had the mind set that the #9 referred to the card number even though I know Exhibits cards are not numbered.

Thanks for showing me the way.

Can't add all that much except that the card was printed into at least 1961 so there are very likely as many variations as there are print runs from the late 1940s through 1961.

IMO that Williams had the longest print run of any exhibit. From past lots I have purchased the long version "Made in the USA" was the oldest of the No #9.
