1922 Wm. Paterson V89s

Paul and I have been discussing the two variances of V89 Wm Patersons. I'm curious, do the B&W versions use a different type of stock than the sepias?

I guess nobody knows. Or nobody cares.

Just a guess... I think your getting 1922 V61 Nelson Chocolates mixed up here with the 1922 V89 William Paterson's I know that the Nelson's have 2 types of cards, type 1 has Old English print on the back, type 2 has a thicker cardstock and no numbers on the front (type 2 is more desirable by %50 cost)

I never heard anything about William Paterson card's having difference types of stock, if this is fact like they say in Oldcardboard.com "Found in both sepia and black and white printings" its news to me. I don't think there would be any price difference do to the low count of cards.

I think Anson is asking if the 2 types of V89s (sepia and B&W) have different paper stocks. I would have answered it but Im not sure myself, the only 2 I have at this moment are sepia and they are slabbed so I cant be sure of the thickness and I dont have one of each type to compare. It is a good question though.

If anyone didnt know the V89s come in either B&W print or a Sepia (brownish) print.

I actually had asked this question to myself a few months ago when I picked up the Daubert from the set. I laid the card next to another one I had from the set and could find no difference and then I held each in one of my hands at the same time. By this very unscientific pair of experiments, I would say the two versions are of the same stock.

Is the sepia tone version clearly different?
Does it refer to the photo only?
Is the typeface and all other aspects of the card the same as the B&W version?
Is this sepia or B&W?

OK, I see the difference here:
Both are on the same card stock.

As an aside, I still need Shawkey, Marquard and Scott to finish the set (shameless plug, sorry, Leon).
Here's a few more scans so the post is legit:

Paul, if you could post up your Heilmann for comparison. It looks as if these B&Ws have substantial stock like the E120s etc.

Actually the card stock reminds me of E121s, semi gloss on the front (finished) and raw on the back.
