Andy - The list as a whole is a good representation of the scarcity of the backs in relation to one another but it's by no means something that can be proven as fact when comparing backs closely positioned on the list. There will be debate and as we've said every collector will have their own experience. The main area we've been discussing moving a few backs up or down is between #12 through #17. A good case can be made for leaving them as they are or moving several around. Each of these backs will go through cyclical periods where more of one than another will come to market so for the time we continue to leave them as they are.
Leon - The blank back and Broad Leaf 350 are two backs that are close in our opinion in scarcity. Though you may see more BL 350's come to market, blank backs are very popular and tend to be tucked away. There are a number of large private collections that when combined number into the hundreds. Again this list is based on our opinion and though they're close we feel the BL 350 is one spot higher on the list. Others may see it differently and that is to be expected.
Scot - I understand your opinion completely and couldn't disagree. We chose to keep the Old Mill (SL)-Brown and blank back on the list due to their great demand but will always reference that they are scrap and not issued in packs.
