Q1.....My thoughts are, and this Johnson in my above scan appears to support this, that the
printing of the T206 fronts is a complex 6-color process. While the T-brand adv. on the back
is a one ink print; therefore, logic dictates that the backs were pre-printed first.

Q2.....The 5-card Wagner strip is a pre-production proof. I don't think we can conclude any
thing from it. I contend that the T206 sheets were formatted 12 cards across. I arrived at
this number when I came across some details of the track widths (19 inches) of early 20th
century printing presses typically used by Lithographic printers.

The number 12 fits in very nicely with the composition of the four Series......

150....156 cards

350....270 cards (6 is actually a better divisor here)

460....48 cards

So. Lgers....48 cards


Q3....I defer this one to Brian Weisner
