z28jd Cards with sheet numbers could also be on the side of a sheet, not just the bottom middle.
Here are two T206s that I own. One has a crop line on the right side and the other has a sheet number on the right side. Why these two cards interest me is because both have the same player (Rhoades-right arm extended) on the front. Of all the T206s I've seen with either a crop line or a sheet number, this is the only player I've been able to pair up. Thank you for posting the Durham!

Thanks for posting the sheet number on the side, never saw or heard about one those before! It is interesting that you found a crop mark and a sheet number on the same subject too...

Jantz, that isn't a sheet number on the right side.

Hi Scott
What is it then? If it is not a sheet number then, is it some form of sheet alignment mark? After reviewing some other examples, I can see now that maybe it might not be a sheet number since all the other T206s have the number on the botttom of the card. Since all the examples I've seen have a Sweet Caporal 350 fact. 30 back, it just seemed obvious that it was a sheet number. Now you got me wondering.

The bottom ones say 30(like the Durham), as in the factory I assume. The two loops are the top of the 3, top of the 0. I've seen one with a much bigger portion of the number where it is easier to tell

Is that the Mathewson portrait? I believe someone here has/had that card with the sheet number

It's the Factory #......I have seen other such numbers and they always coincide with the Factory # of the given T-brand.
These #'s most likely identify to the printer (at a quick glance) which specific back printing plate they have selected for a given press run. Recall, that the fronts have been pre-printed and the various T-brand backs are printed last. TED Z |

I have seen a factory 25 designation on the the bottom as well and a few with the side mark, which looks more like an alignment marking vs #.
