My 50-card set is near complete set.
In an inverse way, your "black" back CM card supports my theory which I noted in post #10 in this thread (i.e., the brown LENOX T206's are the result of printer's mistaken ink
application on a press run of T206 LENOX cards. And why brown ink ? Because the prior press run was CM cards. So, your CM card with the "black" is the result of vice-versa.
The more significant factor that reinforces my theory is the fact that ONLY
Group B subjects of the
350/460 series have been found with the brown LENOX backs.
Printer's errors such as this have also resulted in other T206 backs having the wrong color.
