Default List of known Red HINDU's....can you add any new ones ?

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,
almost as rare as the BROAD LEAF 460 cards.

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