Scot R......6 super-prints
Responding to your......
"One thing that puzzles me is why the six 350/460 superprints are found with the apple green Sovereign 350 back
rather than the forest green Sovereign 350 back. As you know, the superprints were generally printed with backs
otherwise exclusive tothe 350-only subject group (American Beauty 350 Frame, Broad Leaf 350, Carolina Brights,
Cycle 350). And they were generally NOT printed with backs otherwise exclusive to the 350/460 RP subject group
(American Beauty 350 No Frame). We would thus expect the superprints to be found with the forest green Sove-
reign 350--not the apple green variety. Yet this does not appear to be the case. Any thoughts on this apparent
anomaly?"
Here goes my "wild" imagination again: the apple green backs found on the 6 super-prints with Sovereign 350 backs
is indicative of American Litho's initial decision to extend these six (very popular guys) into subsequent (460) series
and subsequent issues (T213's, T214 and T215).
The one puzzling factor regarding the 6 super-prints that bugs me is....why two Chase poses ?
Instead of the Chase (dark cap), they should have Tinker's portrait card.
