Post #21....that's where he (Plank) be found...
For me and this is just my idea of on the Plank card. I really don’t think it has anything to do with letters from lawyers, pulling cards or any drama. I really think the Plank card is a victim of bad production timing and planning that led to the card being printed in smaller numbers.
I think he was added at the tail end of 1909’s production then got carried over into 1910’s production for a brief time and was moved off the sheet to make room for other cards. I only think this because we have way less 150’s than 350’s of Plank that I’m aware of.
Of course I have no proof or documents to back this up just my thoughts is all which is as valid as anyone’s else’s thoughts on this card 100+ years later.
Cheers,
P.S. Tim, nice gallery on Plank BTW, FYI I think #53 is the same card as #14a I’m 99% sure. Could be wrong but both have the same spot and that card has seen 3 holders that I know of.
