Whatever. But, the lesser quantity of PB cards (approx. 50 per subject) that were printed of the 350-only Series makes it improbable for the Demmitt & O'Hara St Louis
variations to belong in this print group.
The numbers of PB cards (150+ per subject) that were printed of many of the 350/460 Series guys closely coincides with the numbers of St. Louis versions of Demmitt
or O'Hara cards that are known.
2nd......Furthermore, in the subsequent printing of the T213-2 set (1914-16), both the Demmitt (New York) image and the Demmitt (St Louis) images were printed in
it. The production of this set utilized sheets printed originally in the T206 set. Therefore, I really doubt that both these Demmitt images were on the same sheet in the
same press run.

Thanks, Ted, that makes sense. I wasn't questioning your original statement, just read it some what incorrectly (which for me, isn't to hard
). You're numbers for 350 vs. 350/460 makes it all come together for me, and it makes perfect logic.
