These data are from my own study conducted from 2008 - 2013 of over 100,000 T206 sales on the Internet. T206 Resource was not involved in any way, shape or form.

The Drum and Red Hindu numbers may be skewed somewhat due to unusual "finds" of cards with those backs in the time frame of the study that would not normally occur.

Except for Piedmont 42, factory breakdowns of Sweet Caporal and Piedmont are difficult since sellers typically do not identify factories and back scans where available are tough to make out.

Enjoy.

Edited to add: My list does not include blank back, Old Mill Brown and Old Mill Overprint because it is scrap.

Hi Scot

This is really great stuff. Thanks for sharing with us these results of your 100,000+ survey of T206 cards.

And, I might add....that a survey of this magnitude overshadows some of the recent finds of DRUM cards,
or red HINDU cards [either of which were discovered within this 6 year period (2008 - 2013); and, limited
to less than 60 subjects each find].
Therefore, in my opinion, I find this data representative of the relative scarcity of the various T206 backs.
