I'll reprise what I said earlier. And, add to it.

checking the first printed sheet and stopped the press. And hung up the Blue OLD MILL T206 sheet to dry.
This was most likely only one such sheet (or perhaps two); therefore, I don't expect us to find duplicates of given subjects.
Both Powell and Walsh are from the 150 series. In the future, it wouldn't surprise me if a few more T206's
surface from this series with Blue OLD MILL backs.

Incidentally,
Here's a Lundgren with a Blue OLD MILL back, an obvious reprint (I acquired this one back in the 1990's).
