E90-1s have plate scratches too!

Great stuff, all. So now we have three neighbors (Ira Thomas, McInnes and Crawford) This is consistent with the scarcity pattern I've observed. The discovery of the double (at least) printed Stone (no arms) refutes my thoughts on the sheet layouts. I have been operating under the assumption that the sheets were formatted similar to the other small candy issues of the era; 25 or 30 card sheets with no duplication. The Stone clearly proves that false. It is, however, consistent with the relative difficulty of this subject, one of the very common ones. Thanks again to everyone. Keep 'em coming!

Ed, I've found quite a few so far I can send to you in an email or post them
here if you want. I haven't done much work on connecting the scratches
but that's what should help determine how many times the same subject
was used in a row.

I found three different matty's so far but it's possible some subjects
were used on more than one sheet.

I got this Krause scan from your site. It looks like the scratch might branch
off in a couple of directions from the last L in ball if you can take a closer look.

ED,
I am making a sheet that tracks all of the scratches and found that there's
a Hartzell (Batting) that matches a Grant.

And there's also a different Hartzell (Batting) that matches a Gibson (Front View).

Pat,
By all means post it in this thread if you'd like. I can't think how I missed the scratch on the Krause. I think I still have that one. Do the second and third Mattys line up horizontally? I continue to be amazed at your remarkable work. Thanks again.

It's hard to tell because the scans are different but it's possible that they line up. When there are more scans collected and the sheets are worked on we
should have a better idea.
