No real mystery regarding the the HINDU cards. The Brown HINDU's were printed and issued in the Summer of 1909 along with the 1st (150) series of T206's. The Red HINDU's were printed and issued in late 1910 (early 1911) with the last (460) series of T206's. It has become apparent that the Red HINDU's were printed simultaneously with the BROAD LEAF 460 cards. The HINDU brand wasn't as popular as the PIEDMONT, SOVEREIGN & SWEET CAPORAL brands; thus, there are less HINDU cards to be found. Furthermore, it is fair to conclude that the Red HINDU cards were short-printed, since they were printed at the tail end of the T206 press runs. This certainly would account for their scarcity. Why American Litho. used RED ink to print the last series of HINDU's remains a curiosity. TED Z Last edited by tedzan; 04-24-2010 at 07:22 AM. |
