Just to clarify a little, the (formerly) "elite eight" subjects were so designated because they were believed to be the only eight 150/350 subjects that could only be found in the 350 series with the Piedmont 350 back and EPDG. That is, these subjects alone among the 150/350 subjects were thought to be available with the Piedmont 350 back but no other "350 subjects" back (e.g., Sweet Caporal 350 and Sovereign 350). What's more, they are more difficult to find with the Piedmont 350 back than are other 150/350 subjects.
Now that a single copy of Schulte (Front View) with Piedmont 350 has been confirmed, the "elite eight" have morphed into the "notable nine" (I'm personally not a big fan of "ninja nine").
Will any of the remaining 150-only subjects someday surface with a Piedmont 350 back and transform this list into the "tremendous ten"? I doubt it, but time will tell.
