Default New challenge....try collecting the various T-brand sub-sets of the T206 Super-Prints

In recent years, I have acquired many of the front-back combos of the six T206 subjects that Scot Reader has identified (in
his book.."Inside T206") as the Super-Prints (SP). These SP are usually referred to as 350/460 subjects. However, these six
subjects are actually quite unique, in that they are in a class of their own by being both 350-only subjects & 460-only sub-
jects (as Scot Reader has so aptly described them).
Each of these SP are found with as many as 24 different T206 backs. Initially, American Lithographic (ALC) printed these six
subjects when they started producing their 350-only series; and, are found with most of the 350 series backs. Subsequently,
ALC extended these SP cards into the 460-only series when they first printed the SOVEREIGN 460 series backs. The SP cards
are found with most of the 460 series backs. EXCEPT....the AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 and the UZIT backs are NO-PRINTS.

Circa Summer of 1910 these SP cards were printed with the AMERICAN BEAUTY 350 (with frame) back........

I will list the backs that these cards can be found with in a subsequent post here.

Next post here will show these SP cards with the extremely rare 1910 COUPON back.
