Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>To answer your question, I think it might be W461. That would be in section 30 of the American Card Catalog, mine is a 1960 edition and the cards are on page 185. I looked at the listings with the PC prefix, and they don't seem to fit. <br /><br />W461 was for photo types<br /><br />W462 was for the ones with "Greetings" or "Best Wishes"<br /><br />W463 was for the 4 on 1 cards<br /><br />W464 was for the 33 card Hall of Fame cards<br /><br />W465 was for the PCL exhibits<br /><br /><br />W461 for all of the years, lumped together.<br />Frank.

Posted By: <b>Steve f</b><p>Paul, This is a blank back issue. <br /><br />Frank, It's a W561 but I was hoping on pinning the year. I am certain it's not the 1921 and leaning toward '22. <br /><br />Exhibits are a challenge, When you've matched the photo, the tint, text or back contradicts. Admittedly, it makes things fun. Thankyou both for your research.

Posted By: <b>boxingcardman</b><p>It is in the SCD book. I did a pretty long article on it in the current Old Cardboard. Check their website for a gallery. If your card is blank-backed it is from the earliest print runs. Don't know the ACC on these; Burdick didn't really make much effort to differentiate Exhibit cards.

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Ahhh, Steve. Your post asked ACC designation, not year.<br /><br />W461 1921 Exhibit.<br /><br />And I agree there's overlap and confusion.<br /><br /><br /><br />The other folks that have responded keep wanting it to be a postcard. But you say it is a blank back card. And I believe it. W461, says Mr. Burdick.

Posted By: <b>Steve f</b><p>Yes Frank, my error. Question was posed prior to realizing the ACC# transcends multiple years on this and other Exhibits.<br /><br />Thankyou Adam -Great article.

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>I don't have the Old Cardboard article with me, but I believe that it says the early print runs of the 1926-31 "postcard" set have blank backs.

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>They are convincing me that it is a PC front with a blank back. (Can't have both a PC back and a blank back at the same time, now, can it?)
