T206 Brown OLD MILL's....Prints vs No-Prints

[tedzan]

Lately, there seems to be some confusion regarding this T206 back. Therefore, I am reprising this survey of Brown
OLD MILL cards, in order to hopefully allay this confusion.

1st press runs (150 series) of T206 Southern Leaguer (SL) cards include 34 of the 48 SL subjects, that were printed
with Brown HINDU and OLD MILL backs. Imagine that in the course of printing the 34 SL cards with these 2 backs,
there was an instance of a mix-up in the ink application, resulting in the printing of a number of Brown OLD MILL's.

Just my theory.....however, it is a plausible explanation for the existence of these Brown OLD MILL backs. To date,
the proof of this conjecture is evident by this fact....the only Brown OLD MILL's that have been found are from this
group of 34 SL cards that were first printed with Brown HINDU backs.

Here are the Southern Leaguer's from this group of 34 with Brown OLD MILL backs that have been confirmed.........

In the next post, I'll list the 14 Southern Leaguer's (350-only series), that if my theory is correct, I claim will NEVER
be found with the Brown OLD MILL back.

Please show or tell us of your Brown OLD MILL's. Especially, if there are any new ones beyond the 10 identified here ?
