I am not sure my attachments came through. If you can't see the attachments for all the different backs, let me know and I'll try again.

Nice! I only have 4 and they are either blank back or light blue O Tinghalls

I went through about 50 or so of mine, I found a few that I do not think that you have...

The RAIA orange back

and (maybe) a couple of color variations on Flamengo backs - I cannot really be sure given that colors are different... you be the judge....

That Raia Orange Back is definitely a new back variation. I will add it to the list.

The Flamingo backs I would consider lighter shades of the same variations. The green is sometimes really strong and other times lighter and I would consider the one you showed to be the same as #10 on my list. And the dark color that goes between black, grey & brown for the Flamingo back I have also been calling what I list as #7.

But I am excited to catalog the orange Raia since I have never seen one of those before.

I have a couple other questions on card backs, if anyone has any input:

1) At times I have wondered if the backs were hand stamped instead of printed. Does anyone know how to tell?

2) Does anyone know what these back specifically advertise? Candy, cigarettes, a bit of both? (or how they were distributed)

[aljurgela]

But what I am told is with candies. I have not found any references to confirm this. Surely you have seen some cars with “bands”. I believe that there was a small paper band that “bound” the card to the candy made of a more absorbent material than the card itself. Thereby the “strip” would absorb the candy and with a higher concentration of the candy material were thereby transferred to the cards. Pure conjecture, but I have a number of cards that would support this hypothesis.
