peter ullmanbut if they were true collectors...or old employees who collected cards...maybe they wanted to print them with impossible backs so they couldn't be confused as c.1909...just a thought.
Weren't there some goudey employees who fabricated fantasy cards or maybe it was some serious early collectors that reproduced cards that literally were authentic but changed certain elements slightly so they couldn't be mistaken as authentic/vintage?
