Last spring I bought this T206 scrap card, and since then I’ve been trying like heck to figure out who the ghost image was and what set it was related to. |

The T206 Ford is consistent with a 1911 issue date for the T68 cards. Ford is in the very last (460-only) |

Very interesting. If the factory designation on the card does not indicate where the card was printed, what does it indicate? |

I believe the building still has "American Litho Co." in stone above the front entrance. Seeing as the building sold recently for $231 million, it's interesting to think they probably had at least that in mint Wagners in that place around 1909. |

Michael- you're closer, you'll get there first. But you do have to find them- maybe they are hidden in the walls and being used for insulation, thousands of them lumped together! |

barry- my hope was that there would be a huge stack of mint sheets in a back room...i'd arrive just as they were about to throw them in the dumpster...and i would of course, rescue them from the dump! |

So they've been sitting there for a hundred years and you show up five minutes before they finally decided to toss them...not very likely! |

I wonder what they used to insulate the walls when they did remodeling in 1912? |
