I would consider that type 3. As you can see there is no triangle of yellow near the 1st base on the path. But the lack of detail should be noticed in the nose and cheeks. PWCC's has a defined bridge of the nose as well as crease lines from the nose to the mouth. The type 3 and 4 do seem to have darker blacks and a more orange background compared to 1 and 2 (instead of vibrant red), but the lack of detail is the main difference between 3 and 4. Type 4 looks more like outline with no shading.

Here is the PWCC next to the one I post above:

I have a black sweet cap 25 type 1 and a black sweet cap 42 type 2

I just picked up a Hoffman "stripe" variation with an Honest back. As far as I can see from the previous posted research, this is the first non-Sweet Caporal back with the stripe.

Nice!

This is the first I have seen, but I am not an expert and have limited data to research so this may not be the only one of its type. It is still cool to see that it does cross to a third back.

I don't follow the T205's that close but since the stripe "variation" appears to be printing
flaw it makes sense to me that this would exist with the Honest Long
Cut back because it already existed with the no stripe "variation" and they
were both previously confirmed with SC 25 black and SC 42 black.

For those that are following these. I did find and receive a Yellow second base - No Stripe with a Piedmont back.
