1921-23 E220 National Caramel Dating Re-evaluation

Glad to see this thread getting some activity. Unfortunately, I have sold most of the E220 partial set that I once had and didn't bother writing down the front/back combos or I would be helping out more. I think what we are finding is leading to the idea that this was a 1922 issue, and not a multi-year production as previously thought to be.

Im a little confused. I own this Ruth and was wondering what type this is? I am guessing this is also a REVERSE BACK?? Thanks Guys!

Eb548 your Ruth would be considered a type 2 reversed...the 'b' of 'Ball' in the second line is directly below the 'i' of 'pictures' in the first line, instead of lining up underneath the 'p' in 'pictures' (this would be the type 1 back). It is considered reversed in that the other two backs have their printed lines start in the top right corner and work downward, while yours is reversed, the lines starting from the bottom left and working upward. I would love to own your card...it would fit right into my collection, like horsehide in the webbing!
