Yes, absolutely. There's plenty of evidence that the 1947 Bond Bread Portrait w/ Facsimile was distributed by grocers in several American cities prior to the rest of the 13 card white border set and the card basically exploded overnight once Shaun provided the evidence in the thread you referenced. This is his RC in my opinion and I also own a 48/49 Leaf which was produced at least one year later.
