Al, sounds like I have the support of the entire country-huzzah!
I suspect the back was runoff as a color test after the team card run (the cards were marketed together in 1951 as Baseball Candy). Following the test I then have to think either: a) a few sheets were added to the top and bottom of each pallet of uncut sheets to protect the sheets to be cut for retail. At some point at least one sheet got mixed in with the production sheets and was diecut and perforated. Or b) it's an early production proof checking for color and was never mixed with retail product. Either way I suspect at least one full sheet or a substantial partial must have been printed. Have to say I am happy I hit the BIN... |
