His collection does not have a corrected Joe Doyle card.

Subsequently, when ALC printed the SOVEREIGN 350 (apple green) cards, Joe Doyle was included in this group of 66 cards. However, he retired during
that period and was not continued into the 350-460 Series.

T206resource is mis-leading the hobby by stating Joe Doyle was printed in "print group 3".

But, if you choose to believe that, that's your prerogative. It's obvious to me that I cannot convince you of this matter.

Ted,

The Joe Doyle card doesn't relate to what's being discussed in this thread
and I only mentioned it because you brought it up and I completely disagree
with this statement. If he was printed early in the 350 only series he would
have a Forrest Green Sovereign back like the rest of the 350 only subjects
not Apple green.

The thread is open to debate so I will ask you a few questions.

Haven't you stated previously that senator Russell pulled the cards
from packs of Piedmont and Old Mills which were the two brands that he
smoked? If this is true I wouldn't expect him to have any of the
"elite eleven" with EPDG backs or any other subjects with EPDG backs.

If you disagree with the possibility of the 150/350 subjects being printed
with EPDG's before PD350 what's your explanation for the print defect
on Frank Owen that's found on several 150 backs and also on EPDG backs
but no 350 backs or the mark on Tannehill that's found on several 350
backs but no 150 or EPDG backs?
