It's interesting to see light and dark ink variations of the same cards. I know it was talked about in a post years ago. I wonder if there's a dark ink variation of blue portrait Hal Chase. I've only seen light ink variations on his card.

You can find light and dark variations in all the series with piedmonts, maybe not as often or pronounced as the 42's but the biggest variation in color
are found on the Polar Bears. polar bear - Copy (2).jpg |

Continuing PIEDMONT 460, Factory #42 cards
Hey guys,
Thanks for posting your PIEDMONT 42 cards. We have a Baker P42 card with a light blue back and another with a dark blue back. It reminds me of a theory which I posted years ago regarding PIEDMONT 42 and UZIT cards. Oh No ! Another "Ted T206 theory". Do they ever end ? Anyway, PIEDMONT 42 and UZIT backs have very similar blue ink variations. Which leaves me to believe that these two backs were printed simultaneously. We do have evidence that the UZIT backs were printed and issued in Feb-Mar 1911. This timeline is consistent with ATC's transfer of the Piedmont Cigarette production to the Liggett & Myers Factory (#42) in Durham, NC. Here's my two UZIT examples of varying blue ink intensity...... . . . TED Z . Last edited by tedzan; 06-29-2017 at 11:08 AM. Reason: Correct typo. |

Hi Ted,
Sorry I have been AWOL for quite a while. Interesting theory about P42/Uzit light/dark blue. Did I miss something w/r/t P42 confirmations? Are there differences in confirmations between light/dark P42? If so, perhaps a separate checklist is warranted (like Sov 350 Apple/Forest Green). We could even come up with a name like baby/royal blue (although I hate the term "baby") that emphasizes the difference. That's part of the fun!

PIEDMONT 460, Factory #42 cards
Hi Scot
This is my current checklist. Do you have any other 460-only series guys to add to this list from your surveys ? Quote:

Hi Ted and Sean,
Nothing to add to Ted's P42 list. I keep thinking I have seen Murray (Portrait) P42 some time in the distant past but you know how the mind can play tricks about such things. I'm probably confusing it with Schlei (Portrait) or Seymour (Portrait). Scot Last edited by sreader3; 06-26-2017 at 11:59 AM. |

Hey Scot, that's exactly what my girlfriend calls my Plank: the Baby Blue Plank. And I hate that term as well.
