Default Printing irregularity found on a Piedmont 350 back

To all the T206 collector. I recently discovered a printing irregularity on the T206 Harry Krause, pitching version with a Piedmont 350 back. I purchased 2 different Harry Krause (pitching) cards from two different Sellers within the past month. I noticed that each had a unique printing irregularity on the "T" in Piedmont. I have viewed 30 or so Harry Krause (pitching version) cards with the Piedmont 350 back which are for sale and those recently purchased and I have not be able to find another card with the same printing irregularity. If anyone has the card with the same marking it would be interesting to know. Thanks.

A new T206 error? Several years ago this would have been holy grail news. Something was on the printing plate that smeared the ink and/or it looks like the letter formation was changed....

I could not agree more with Leon’s assessment. The “irregularity” is a plate imperfection causing the ink to smear. While interesting, it’s nothing more than an example of the pitfalls of early 20c printing.

Cheers,
Mike

Thank you Leon and Mike for your responses and expertise. It was just strange to me that this marking was on the back of two cards that I purchased last month and I haven't been able to find any others with similar markings. Thanks again.

Hi Scott,

I did a quick check and found several other Krause (pitching) PD350's
with the same flaw, here are a few of them.

Krause 3.jpgKrause 4.jpg

In my experience from researching print group 2 back flaws like
this you will generally find these flaws in about a 1 in 20-25 sales range.

It's also likely that this exact flaw can be found on one or
two other print group 2 subjects.

Here's a similar flaw that is found on three different print group 2
subjects.

Thanks for posting about this it is helpful in the research of
the printing process.

Thanks for pointing this print flaw out Scott! Like Pat said, every new print flaw we find gets us a little closer to understanding the way these cards were printed.

Yes, it would be interesting if someone found a different subject with the Krause flaw.

Thanks so much Pat for the great research. I know this has been said countless times before but Net54 is the premier site for vintage and the wealth of knowledge its members have never ceases to amaze me. As Luke mentioned, this find may bring us another step closer to solving the printing process of The Monster.
