It's the only Schulte with a Piedmont 350 back that's known. There are other cards that are very difficult to find with a Piedmont 350 back as well, but multiple examples of all of them have been confirmed. Counting the Schulte there are 10 cards that are tough to find with a Piedmont 350 back. The Schulte differs from the other 9 since it has never been confirmed with an EPDG back. I can't speak for anyone else, but before seeing the card I questioned whether or not it was scrap. This may explain its scarcity and why there is no EPDG back as well. But after seeing the scan of the card I don't see anything the leads me to believe that it wasn't factory cut.
It's possible that one or more examples of the Schulte with a Piedmont 350 back will show up. It's a card that could easily go unnoticed in many collections. For the time being it's interesting to ponder this one.
