Default UPDATED list of Red HINDU's....show off your T206's

I'm reprising the initial post in this thread here in order to switch it back onto the main track. Show or
tell us of your Red HINDU cards.

Several email requests have motivated me to reprise my T206 information regarding Red HINDU cards.
The Red HINDU cards were printed and issued in Winter of 1910 (and very early 1911). It appears that
the 350/460 series Red HINDU cards were printed as "matched pairs" with the BROAD LEAF 460 cards,
since these two scarce T206 backs have in common identical fronts.

Did you know that the Red HINDU's were virtually unknown when Bill Heitman published his book, "The
Monster" in 1980 ? Bill noted that only 6 cards were known. They are indeed very rare.....in my opinion,
about as rare as BL 460 cards.

So let's see your Red HINDU's. All posts are welcome regarding Red HINDU cards....and, any questions
that you may have.
