The cream back is a little easier in series 1 but the white back/frame gap card isn't difficult at all. I'm pretty sure this is a clue to which stock was the initial run, I have most of series 1 with both backs but haven't finished hunting down all the RPD's with both backs and observed enough to know if they probably don't exist with a certain back. I do think Alston here implies that the two stocks were not done at the same time. |
Just checked mine. As you said, the white back has the notch, cream back does not.
