How far apart were the cards printed (temporally)?

E97 are presumed to be 1909 and E93 1910.

Admittedly I'm not very familiar with the printing background on these sets so this may be already known. However, I think the combination points that both sets were printed by the same company and then distributed to the specific vendor for distribution - Briggs in Boston and Standard in Lancaster.

Also knowing the similarity of several cards in the sets compared to e98 (Dooin/Cobb with e93/e98 & Myers/Young with e97/e98), I believe this suggests that e98 quite possible originated with the same printer.

Does anyone know who was the specific printer?

There is an E92 Cy Young E card with an E78 back and I recall seeing a boxing front with a NS back. Doesn't Leon [hi Leon] have one of these freak prints?

Hey Adam
Yes, I have a few E cards with different backs. Here are a few and also I have recently seen another E card with a different E card ghost image on back..... but can't seem to locate it now. Eventually I believe more information will be gleaned on how these were produced.

Leon, was just about to mention the menagerie backs on the E92's. However, off the top of my head I cant think of any e92/e101/e102/e105/e106 images that have the same image either e93/e94/e97/e98 sets. The REA card links the e93 set and e97 sets to the same printer. I'm not aware of any cards that would link the "checklist" style backs to the "advertisement" style backs. So are those two groups from two or more different printers?

All the e-card wrong backs seem to be upside down. Could this have been done on purpose so that printer would make sure they stood out from the final printing when that time came?

Makes sense to me!!! But...there are examples of e92 as well as others with upside down backs?
