scott brockelmanbarry,
i have louped several as well and the patterns match on both series, for some reason all 350 series cards have a bit of a different color hue and are much less vivid than 150 series cards. i am speaking of the entire set. i once bought a group of about 500 t206's all original to the owner and he had mulitple dupes they were in a 15 pocket page album and you could tell the 150's and 350's apart from the front, most were also sovereign's so it is not only sweet cap or piedmont. i would suggest that either the press they were using the plates on had become worn or faulty and was not getting the proper pressure to leave a nice crisp print and not fully inked along with the poor registration.
???
