OK Here's my question!

That's a good question.....and, here is my answer.

I will qualify my above two numbers. First, my "Consolidated...." thread accounts for every T206 back (American Beauty - UZIT), except
for these 2.... Sweet Caporal sub-sets (Factory #25 and #42) cards. The Sweet Caporal, Factory #25 subset accounts for another 480
cards (approx.). And, the Sweet Caporal, Factory #42 sub-set accounts for another 60 cards (approx.). Therefore, the new total = 4996
(4312 + 624 + 60) cards.

I posted a thread 2 years ago regarding a "master set" estimate; and, at that time the number resulted in 5136 (given the information we
had in 2009). Here is a link to that thread......

Since then, I would say a better estimate may be anywhere from 5200 > 5500 front/back T206 permutations. Furthermore, recently there
have been some more finds (DRUM, LENOX, UZIT, etc.) that have trickled in new T206's. In any event, this subject matter will continue to
be a work in progress for a long time.

Best regards,

Ted - As you may know I've been studying the Sweet Caporal cards for sometime now trying to get a better idea of what was and was not printed with respect to each back.

Sweet Caporal 350-460 Factory 42 (No Overprint) = 46 Subjects (2 unconfirmed)
Sweet Caporal 150 Factory 25 = 153 Subjects (11 unconfirmed)

Sweet Caporal 350 Factory 25 and Sweet Caporal 350-460 Factory 25 are both still a work in progress. As many as 402 subjects were printed with the SC 350 No.25 back with a large number of them having been confirmed. The SC 350-460 No.25 group numbers no more than 69 with all but 15 being confirmed to date.

Total number of Sweet Caporal Factory 25 believed possible at this time = 624

These confirmed numbers are not the results of surveys I've done but cards myself, Jim Rivera or Craig Wright have actually seen.

I hope these numbers prove helpful.

Tim
1st....my number of "approx. 60" for the Sweet Caporal, Factory 42 (No Overprint) includes the 19 additional Sweet Caporal 460/42 (No Overprint)
cards that have been confirmed from the 460-Only series.

2nd....and, thanks for the better number of a possible 624 for the Sweet Caporal Factory 25 sub-set. I have revised the grand total to 4996 in my
above post to reflect this.

For the sake of accuracy the Sweet Cap 350-460 No.42 (No Overprint) group is 46 subjects. I corrected my post but it's wrong in Teds post above that quoted mine.

Also we believe there were only 12 460 Only subjects printed with this back.

Thanks for the updates. Now we are comparing aples to apples.

I notice you didn't add the Coupons

[tedzan]

Hey guy....I think you want me to stir up some controversy....don't you

Really, I'm one on this forum who is completely convinced that these 1910 COUPON cards should be included in the T206 "family".

But, I try not to push it....why stir up a "hornets nest"....I will leave well enough alone (at least for now)
