Finally went to the printing museum
Finally went to the printing museum here in Mass.
A pretty cool place, heavy on typeset stuff but a small section on lithography.
And an excellent library.
The guy in the Library, Frank seems like a fantastic resource.
I didn't have much time, being with family.
But I did ask him a couple questions and got one really great piece of info.
There was a 2 color litho press in 1910, sold by Harris.
Still a lot of connections to make, but at least the possibility that T206s were printed on a 2 color press have gotten a lot closer to probably.
Many of them show what to me is evidence they were produced on a 2 color press. Colors are often registered in pairs and many legitimate missing color cards have two colors missing, even if one isn't obvious.
Now to make time to go back and do some real looking up and talk with that guy a bit more.
