T226 - the black fighters are short printed.
T218 - one of the 4 black fighters is the only superprint.
All other T card sets from the ATC - no evidence of super or short printing of black subjects. If anything Johnson, Langford and Jeanette appear to be more common than most but I don’t think anyone has been able prove the printing was uneven (the ability to request doesn’t necessitate different print runs or mixing sheet layouts; they reserved the right to substitute cards for what was on hand). Johnson appears to me to be the easiest subject in the entire set by a wide margin.
