My PIEDMONT 150 and SOVEREIGN 150 do not have this mark. But, as Jantz has noted, my PIEDMONT 350 does have a faint trace of this mark.

Furthermore....currently, on ebay there is a Mullin with this same "printer's mark" which is quite distinct......

Is this just a random phenomena, or do only certain Mullin cards (with respect to their tobacco advertising back) exhibit this DOT ?

It would be interesting to see if a pattern exists....so, when you have a chance, check out your Mullin cards and tell us if your's has this printer's mark.

Thanks
