Since someone said Hoblitzell No Stats here's mine. The lowest graded card in my set. I still say this is tougher to find than a Wagner (but much, much more affordable, of course!!). Didn't realize how tough it was until after I picked it up.

I think my Beals Becker has a green Broad Leaf back. Does anyone have Becker with a black back? Could that account for a Drum back not being found? I think with American Beauty, if it has one color, it does not have another. Is Broad Leaf the same way?

Great cards so far y'all, congrats on the latest Wolter, Ted. The only complete ABCD subject I have is Bridwell. I'm past halfway on the complete set, with lots of back runs for different players.

My T205 education stopped at ABC. I guess this collector moves to the beat of someone else's Drum.

Default Latham ABCD

My Becker is dark green (scan below).
Right now, I feel like the text colors for Broad Leaf are probably a continuum, kind of like how Piedmont 25 can range from lighter blue to very dark blue, meaning that any BL could be found with some shade in a green-to-brownish-grey range. But I'm open-minded on that.


Here's ABCD for Latham.

You raise an interesting question regarding the possible "non-connection" of a Green BROAD LEAF card vs. DRUM back (with respect to your Becker card with the Green ink
back). However, your Bridwell BROAD LEAF appears to be Green ? And, Bridwell has been confirmed with a DRUM back.

Furthermore, the various A = B= C "Quad Squad" sub-sets which I have (waiting for DRUM backs to complete them) have Black BROAD LEAF backs. Huggins is my favorite
"Quad Squad" sub-set. The Huggins card has not yet been confirmed with a DRUM back. But his BROAD LEAF back is Black ink. Therefore, I have high expectations that his
DRUM card will eventually be discovered.

Ted, the Bridwell looks very dark blue or black to me, in-hand.

It's very interesting that Michael's Broad Leaf Becker also has a green back.

Here are some backs I have scans of, I'll see if I can scan some more this week and group them by back color.

I have not seen enough T205 BROAD LEAF cards to form an accurate correlation between their color variations (green, blue, etc.) and the DRUM cards. There aren't too many
BROAD LEAF cards with these other color variations available to make an honest evaluation. The greater majority of BROAD LEAF backs are Black ink (or Brown).

One factor I am certain of in this A = B = C = D equation is that the Black AMERICAN BEAUTY back correlates exactly with existence (or probability) of a DRUM back.

Conversely, T205 subjects printed with the Green AMERICAN BEAUTY backs are mutually-exclusive with T205's with DRUM backs.

Checklist of the 12 basic Tobacco backs for this group of 32 subjects (Quad Squad).…..

AMERICAN BEAUTY (Black ink)
BROAD LEAF (black, or brown, or green or blue ink)
CYCLE
DRUM
HASSAN (Factory #30)
HASSAN (Factory #649)
HONEST LONG CUT
PIEDMONT (Factory #25)
PIEDMONT (Factory #42)
POLAR BEAR
SOVEREIGN
SWEET CAPORAL (Factory #42) Red ink
