Proof? T206 were printed in rows of more than twelve

Perhaps 17

I think you also need to align the Piedmont backs, which I don't think the Maddox does.

I noticed that when I was aligning them. Need to take it off.

Interesting that on the backs there are a few different fronts printed for the PC, some upright and one upside down. On the below is the bar scene upside down and another unidentified front.

The Miller/Barbeau/Natress group its right side up.



If you take our sheet and overlay three front post cards they line up, you can see the red wine glass on the second Rudolph and the L from Lash on the bottom of the third card.

The removal of the Maddox further leads credence that there were stacks of (at least) four... the only card that fits into multiple rows in the same column is Rudolph.

Also helpful that we know that Maddox is adjacent (above) Snodgrass Batting on a two-namer (Piedmont 350), which isn't contradicted on this sheet.

And we know that Bliss was adjecent to Freeman (on the left) of a ghost image Piedmont 350; also not contradicted on this sheet.

This part of the print on the back is also from another postcard. Honestly can't remember if it was an advertisement for Lash's Bitters, but I found the postcard once on the internet the last time we discuss these.

The dark area on the "dm" of Piedmont is a hat. Looking closely you can see hair just underneath along with the outline of an ear. The man wearing the hat is facing to the left.
