A Summer Gift - and I am tired of looking - Honus Wagner

[teetwoohsix]

I've often wondered if the Wagner test strip could give us a little insight into where he was placed on a sheet. I can't say for sure.

I think the best information we have to go off of is the information on T206Resource. Tim wrote a great article about it, and Chris put together a very believable possible sheet layout. The print groups play a significant role in putting together what we could assume a sheet may have looked like.

I have been doing a lot of research into the presses that the ALC were using and I'll save that for a later thread, when my research is done. I can say that I'm very confident that they were using many different types of presses; not just the 19x24.

And, take it for what it's worth- in the book "The Card" on page 79 it says that the Wagner had a red printer's line at the top of the card.

Sincerely, Clayton

Thank you Clayton. Do you have the link to Tim's research for posting?

Also thanks for the above, will take a look. Red printers line is interesting.
