Cool Beans
 
Hadn't held these in hand before. They resemble the W555s in design and in cardstock. Found in the same corner of the unopened trunk, together. Perhaps they are "related" somehow. Ehh, maybe not. Enjoy, S

Very cool. Thanks for posting. Haven't seen that issue in the middle with the white name writing underneath and I don't have my Lipset volume with me.

Notebook cover? The cardstock looks thicker than that, though, so maybe not.

Interesting that both Youngs are cut short on both the botton and right sides. Lends some credence that they may be cut from a notebook or box of some sort.

Neat
 
Steve,

Neat stuff. I have very few with the oddities you have hear. Of course you had a few to look through.

Great stuff Steve, for posting the odd stuff your finding while sorting all those cards! It's really fun to watch.

Those middle cards all appear to have two factory cut edges leading to one corner, the same with Leon's example. It's hard to tell without a close look though.

How fun that must be to look through a thousand raw T206s. Even without a commission, that would be extremely fun to do.
