Does your Tenney have a broken Y ?
I checked 232 and found 12 with a broken Y all of these were different
examples but of the 220 that didn't have it I'm sure some of them are repeat sales. These are the examples I found 1 Sweet caporal 150 Factory 30 10 Piedmont 150's 1 Piedmont ? Last edited by Pat R; 10-04-2014 at 11:55 AM. |

Steve: Thanks for posting yours I will add it.
Erick: Is yours in the Sterling Auction? If it is I already counted it. Odd there is only one Sweet Caporal so far. |

Pat, did you find other 150 series with a complete Y?
|
#10
|
||||
|

Yes, a large percent were from the 150 series.

Very observant. Do you think the "Y" was made full for aesthetics in a later release?

may never have been fixed but the rest of the Tenney's on the sheet would have had the full Y. |

Exactly. One spot would have had either a flawed transfer or the transfer didn't get laid down properly. 12/220 is an interesting split. Seeing it with the 220 split by series would be pretty interesting. Assuming even distribution between 150's and 350s that would make the broken Y about 1 in every 9 cards. A clue about how many of a particular card were on a sheet. Great find and good work on the numbers Steve B PS- A tenney 350 with the broken y would most likely be a real prize. |

"A tenney 350 with the broken y would most likely be a real prize". Totally agree. Is it worth 20x the regular Tenney given the ratio of broken Y discovered v. the non broken Y. I think more.

Steve B [/QUOTE] Here's the breakdown Steve: The most intriguing thing to me is the PD 150 and SC 150 discrepancy, almost seems like something might have been done during the SC 150 printing. PD 150 85-10 PD 350 29-0 PD ? 10-1 SC 150 53-1 SC 350 24-0 SC ? 8-0 SOV 150 6-0 SOV 350 5-0 SOV ? 3-0 Hindu 3-0 Unknown back 6-0 Last edited by Pat R; 10-06-2014 at 08:00 AM. |

What I've found with the one really tough card I've checked scans of is about 8 different identifiable types. Which matches nicely with the 85/10 split for P150. The sample size is a bit small but that's encouraging. That there's only one SC150 when 8:1 would seem to say 6 or 7 is also interesting. I'd need more to feel really comfortable with it, but I think it points towards the sheets being different for different brands. Do you happen to know what factory the SC is? I'll go out on a limb and guess it's a factory25. I'm thinking either the problem was fixed during printing the SCs, or maybe the single SC is from P150 leftovers used for some SC 150's. Steve B |

Steve, it's a factory 30

Ah well, not the first guess I've missed. Interesting that it's a 30.
I had some reasoning that made me think it might be a 25, which I'll have to rethink. I have a feeling that the SC broken y will remain a one only for a while. Steve B |

Steve B[/QUOTE] I found a Sweet Caporal 150 Factory 25 with the damage to the Y. This is the first re-occurring flaw on a a SC/25 and SC/30 in either the 150 or 350 series that I can recall. Last edited by Pat R; 01-19-2016 at 12:19 PM. |

No Broken "Y"
Mine is a Sweet Caporal, 150, Factory 30, District 24. No broken "Y". I find it fascinating how there are so many variations, regardless of how small, still being discovered after 105 - 107 years. That just adds to the appeal of the T206 set for me. Great discovery and thanks for sharing.
