I found the Sovereign Kleinow to be one of the tougher apple green cards in my quest to complete my set.

Thanks for posting it.

Ted, this has been an absolute treat to read. Thank you! I only wish I had some cards to contribute. Soon, perhaps.

[tedzan]

I really appreciate your complimentary comments.

Hey guys,

Just one more once (as Count Basie would say). Does anyone on this forum have (or have seen) any of these 66 cards
with 2 different names (top & bottom) ?

They don't have to be Sovereign cards....any tobacco brand will suffice (Piedmont, Sweet Cap, Old Mill, Polar Bear, etc.).
I'm offering a reward for any different names inputs regarding the 60 subjects listed below.

But, regarding the 6 Super-Prints, I am only interested in SOVEREIGN 350 cards of them.


Normal Sovereign green




Sovereign "apple green"





My hypothetical 72-card sheet (which may also have been printed in a 12 x 12 card format of 144 cards)


v................................................. Six super-prints .................................................. v









Here is the list of these 66 subjects displayed here on this simulated 72-card sheet............

Six Super-Prints

Chance (yellow portrait)
Chase (blue portrait)
Chase (dark cap)
Cobb (red portrait)
Evers (Chicago-yellow sky)
Mathewson (dark cap)


60 subjects

Ames (hands over head)
Baker
Bender (no trees)
Berger
Bradley (bat)
M. Brown (Chicago)
Burch (fielding)
Cobb (bat off shoulder)
Conroy (bat)
Crawford (bat)
Harry Davis (A's)
Donlin (bat)
Doolan (bat)
Dougherty (arm in air)
Downey (bat)
Joe Doyle (arms over head)
Larry Doyle (bat)
Elberfeld (Washington-fielding)
Griffith (bat)
Jennings (one hand)

Jennings (two hands)
Johnson (pitching)

Pfeister (throwing)
Reulbach (no glove)
Rhoades (arm at face level)
Rucker (throwing)
Seymour (throwing)
F. Smith (white cap)
Snodgrass (catching)

Steinfeldt (bat)

Tinker (bat off shoulder)

Doc White (Chicago-pitching)
Wilhelm (bat)

Willis (bat)
Wiltse (pitching)
CYoung (glove)


Note

That I show the 6 super-print cards Double-Printed (D-P) on this sheet. Several surveys over the years have consistently
indicated that these 6 super-prints were D-P relative to the other 60 subjects on this sheet.


Thanks guys,

Check out again my 66-subject list (Post #27), and you'll see that your Frank Smith (white cap) is on it.

Your Donohue is 150/350 subject and cannot have an apple green back. It's back is normal green.

And, a big THANKS for posting your Cobb with the two same names. I like this "gem" because it lends credence
to the Double-Printing of the six super-prints that I have diagramed in my hypothetical 72-card sheet

Those two cards are both on the list Ted has above.

Cheers,

Rob was correct regarding Donohue. Donohue was missing in my SOVEREIGN 150 list in Post #21.
I have since added him to the list.

Thanks Rob for noting that omission.

Ted,

This is my only example:

Murphy_Batting__Sovereign_350_Apple_Green_Back_SGC_60.jpg

Murphy_Batting__Sovereign_350_Apple_Green_Front_SGC_60.jpg

As a side note has anyone else noticed that a large % of the Apple Green Sovereign backs appear to have product stains. It's as if they were packaged a little differently and came more in contact with the product.

Thanks,

Jerry

I went thru my entire SOVEREIGN set (and 42 duplicates), but noticed only 6 cards that had a hint of tobacco staining on the backs of them.

Here's the Series breakdown of these 6 cards......

2....150 series

2....350 series (normal green)

1....350 series (apple green)

1....460 series
