Thanks everyone for posting these recent finds.

My guess is that the sheet layouts (of cards that are common) between the sweet cap factory designations where shared. For example, the Ames Portrait in SC350 has been found with both the 25 and 30 "huge factory number at back bottom" suggesting that they were at the same sheet location with both factory designations:

I agree Er!ck.

As with the other Chance, the crop line is in the same corner as the Chance you posted.

This one isn't mine but I came across it when doing some research. Are there any other Red Hindu cards with crops known?

Just want to post these here for posterity:

Couple more crop marks to add to the puzzle:

I got a Johnny Evers (blue sky) in the mail today and noticed what I think is a crop mark on the back in the upper left corner. Dumb question and possibly answered elsewhere but I found another thread indicating these marks should have been erased. What was process for erasure? I ask because the mark on my card looks to be the same red as the Sweet Cap red printing. Would have just been a matter of using an eraser to remove that section of ink? Would that otherwise affect the card's surface (I.e., flake off some of the card stock)?
