Since that poll (I conducted 3 years ago), I have kept track of the Joe Doyle cards, and the % of cards that have the printer's (remnant) mark
is considerably less than 13%.

My latest tally is 229 unique samples. A total of 19 exhibit this "mark". At this point, that translates to 8.3%.....or, 1 of every 12 Joe Doyle cards.

I would be very interested in knowing what backs are on these Joe Doyle cards that you have (or have seen) ?

Because, the Joe Doyle's with backs other than Piedmont 350 (and to a lesser degree Sweet Cap 350) are very rarely found with this "mark".
