I received an email from a new member inquiring about the "Super-Prints" which I referred to in my above post.

OK, most of you T206 enthusiasts are quite familiar with this term. For those who are new to this T206 game pictured below are the 6 super-print subjects. The significance
of these 6 subjects were identified by Scot Reader in his excellent research which he documented in his book...."Inside T206". The super-prints are more available than any
other T206's since these cards were printed with more tobacco brands. Furthermore, it is evident in many cases that these 6 subjects were Double-Printed on T206 sheets.

Well, since there haven't been any responses to this topic at this point, I'll give this thread a friendly bump by noting my 4th favorite T206 back....BROAD LEAF 350 (BL 350).
And, my favorite guy with a BL 350 back is Mr. Chase.

Theoretically, there were 190 BL 350 cards printed by American Lithographic. To date, 177 subjects have been confirmed with the BL 350 back. This is indeed a difficult T206
back to find. I expect that the remaining 13 unaccounted for guys will eventually being discovered.

Great posts, Ted. Except I don't think everyone in the hobby is completely on board with the Coupons being T206, as they are T213s. Otherwise, thanks for sharing.
And I am very much looking forward to March.....We can argue about this in person! And we will have to see where Danny lands on this issue. Should be fun.

Ok, since we are not getting any BROAD LEAF 350 responses here, perhaps let's try for the for "rarest of the rare"....how's about showing off your BROAD LEAF 460 cards.


Theoretically, American Lithographic printed 35 subjects with the BROAD LEAF 460 back. As of today, 28 of these T206's are confirmed.

These 7 unconfirmed cards remain.

Ames (hands above head)
Bender (no trees)
Chance (portrait-yellow)
Chase (blue)
Chase (dark cap)
Larry Doyle (bat)
Magee (bat)


It would be great see one (or 2) these T206's displayed here. Earlier this year Donlin (batting) was discovered. So, there is hope that more (if not all) of these 7 subjects will
eventually be found with BROAD LEAF 460 backs..

Personally, I like the Uzit's design best. Then EPDG.....then maybe Red Hindu....or Carolina Brights. Everyone has their own faves which is great.
I did a back run years ago and almost completed it before giving up on it.
