Default S74s

Sorry I don't post more Leon. Don't really do any scanning and most of the time everyone wants to see pics of items so they know what you're talking about. I should figure it out one of these days and I could show you what I'm talking about as far as the crocheted S74 I have.

By the way, are the S74s in your scan all the ones you've kept for your collection? I know you're a type collector and it looks like you tried to get one of every different back type for the white S74s. If those are all you have there is variant you may be missing. The Turkey Reds came with either a bordered or borderless advertising back. The bordered version you have shows a decidedly bluish ink tone/tint to it. There is also a definite black ink tone/tint version of the Turkey Red bordered backs. As far as I know and have ever seen, all the other advertising backs on the S74 white version silks are only printed in black ink. The bordered Turkey Red backs are the only ones I've ever come across that are printed in two different ink colors/tones. Not that you need to acquire another silk for your collection but.........check and see if you don't already have a black bordered Turkey Red back to complement that blue ink one in your scan.
