Thanks Pat, yep it measures exactly 5 1/2 x 3 1/2. Hoping it can help get us closer to a T206 sheet size.

I think it could prove to be a big help. It seems you and Erick have everything
lined up good in your recent posts which would put this sheet at minimum
of 23-24 inches wide. (If the PC wasn't offset on the sheet).

guys! we need to re construct the Sweet Cap 350/460 yellow brown sheet

The Bitters is SICK!

I love connecting them to other period lithography!

like the Gandil / Cortez scrap I have

Erick....please post the Gandil / Cortez ghost scrap over lay

Chris and Erick,

If you will accommodate, I think many of us would be very interested to see your current respective "best guesses" as to the MxN composition of a T206 sheet based on Lash's and any other information you have so ably acquired. Animations are appreciated.

Hey Scot,

I haven't looked at this in a while but when overlaying the PCs on a grid with T206 dimensions I am seeing consistency in horizontal & vertical spacing. The hight of the PCs are 3:4 ratio of a T206 and align perfectly with several of the Lash Bitters T206 overprints.

Width wise, its a 4:19 ratio, without any margin on the T206 side which we know there was. 17x8 could be an option.

These T206s look to have 2 different PCs overprinted, both with the front right side up and upside down as well as the reverse.

There is a lot going on to show in one animation, the cards that flash show where the overprint Lash ink aligns with the background PC. Look at the yellow gold kicker rod on the bar, Lash Bitters logo, blue jacket of smaller man, blue hat etc.

Definitely needs a lot more work.

I feel sorry for the poor fellows waiting around for their own personal "live one". Not sure if a shot of Lash's beforehand might lead to disastrous results.
