post #27 tells of the apple green Sovereign-Ted also figured out the No Print


red Hindus are a bit different than Sovereign apple green because apple greens are 350-460 players only and red Hindu can be 350-460 and 460 only

Jim - Sometimes I'm guilty after 3 or 4 posts of seeming to stray from my original thought. Here' what I was trying to say in a nutshell.

ALC made deliberate changes to the backs of some cards during specific print runs. I mentioned the "Apple Green" Sovereigns as an example of a definitive switch in ink color and not just an anomaly. Same with the red Hindu's, that was a change made for a reason.

The answer could lie in the groups of cards that were printed at the same time.

If we know through Ted's research that the Red Hindu's were printed with the Broad Leaf 460's could the brown back of the Broad Leaf have caused ALC to make the switch to Red for the Hindu's to make the backs have greater contrast?

You are all good, and we need more members like you. I just wanted to add facts and not let my partners head get too big...

I will soon have to bring my dumptruck to the shows so I can carry Teds head...

Together in the past year or two, we have made great strides on the 206 set and Ted deserves a great portion of that credit. However, you do as well and so do several other members that don't post often but put a great amount of effort in. This is great for the forum and the collecting community.

A better idea is to bring your dumptruck to the show full of vintage BB cards that we can
sell at 1990's (or even 1980's) prices.

Then, we'll add some excitement to the Philly show and perhaps revive it

21st Century prices for vintage BB cards have become exceedingly "out of sight, man" ! !

Let's bring back the greatness of the WILLOW GROVE days

Hey Buddy

I would like to revive the Philly show because I am really starting to have fun at this but only way I could fill my dumptruck with cards is to stop by your house...

If you'ld bring a dumptruck full of fresh fish to a show, I'd be tempted to make a trip eastward for 'em

Craig-that may be possible right now-Marylands Eastern Shore is on fire --me and Jim jr caught bass,crappie,blue gill,pickeral and some catfish last Saturday. We just took pictures and let them go.
