Question, S74-2

[BobC]

You can of course put runs together using a combination of the three ink colors for the images, and the different advertising backs for the S74-1 white version silks. At least for the Old Mill and Turkey Red versions. Good luck trying to find Red Sun and Helmar backed silks for any one player, let alone in all three ink colors.

With the S74-2 colored version silks, they were only produced for two advertised cigarette brands, Old Mill and Turkey Red. And as you can see in the images you attached to your post, the colored version silks show the cigarette brand and factory number printed on the front of the silks at the very top and bottom, in the same color ink as the images. You could try doing an S74-2 run for a particular player using say one silk color for for all three different ink colors, and then for both the Old Mill or Turkey Red versions. In that case, I guess you could say there could be six different silks in a player run of S74-2 colored silks for each separate material color/shade. Three different ink colors for Old Mill silks, and three for Turkey Red silks. The trouble is if you then tried to do it for all the different material colors/shades for that same player. Lord knows how many different examples could be found and included in that player run then. Theoretically six times however many different material colors/shades that particular player had silks produced with.
