Nice start, Jimmy, now onto Sovereigns, EPDGs, and Tolstois

(There are a few tougher ones, but they don't come to mind right now )

Don't try to get any EPDG's. They aren't any good. FYI.

Any of them.

Actually, I have a Tolstoi on the way (upgrade later) and a Sov 350. But I got the Sov because of the front. A Titus.

Chris - Thanks. I will as things progress. Had to get that P42.

Jeff - Thanks man. I appreciate and value your guidance. I'll stay away from the EPDG's. You are such a good friend.

Seriously, thank guys.

Nice start, Jimmy. I've had some of the real tough backs for 20+ years (Lenox, Broad Leaf 350), but I just got my first Piedmont 42 this year at the National (from Ted Z), and my first Sweet Caporal 350-460 Factory 42 (no overprint) less than a month ago from a board member. When I started collecting T206 backs in the early-mid 90s, few people paid attention to factory numbers, so I just went for the different brands and the number variations (150, 350, 460) within the brands that have them. About a month ago I decided to inventory all my T206s and record each back including the factory numbers for Sweet Caporals; I found that I had all of them except the SC 350-460/42, but I was able to get one right away. Now I just need the real toughies: red Hindu, Broad Leaf 460, Drum, Uzit, brown Old Mill, brown Lenox and Ty Cobb (if you consider that a T206).

I got my example of the Pied Fac 42 in the mail today (Thanks Luke).
Thought I'd show where I stand as of today. I do have a couple of upgrades on the way from Rat Mouth Florida.

Here is my run:
I never got a Pied 42 when I did my back run. There were some available but every time I went for one I got beat out......They are tough. Congrats on that one and nice run!!

Nice going, Jimmy; now on to the Lenox.

By the way, who's on the front of that Piedmont 42?
