Thanks Brian.

Well that's strange. The scratches line up but McInnes should be on the
right for the back.

It's two different Thomases, Pat. Roy of Boston is the one with the scratch. Ira is the neighbor to McInnes in Brian's post. I find it interesting because It's unlikely that Roy Thomas and McInnes could be sheet mates. I'm betting we find another subject with a matching scratch to Roy Thomas.

Thanks Ed, what a dope I am. I didn't even pay attention to the fronts
and I didn't know there are two different Thomases. There is another
scratch that matches Roy Thomas it's Crawford.

OK I found the right Thomas and it has the same mark on the lower left front as Brian's miscut Thomas.

That's Great Dan, Thanks.

Great stuff, all. So now we have three neighbors (Ira Thomas, McInnes and Crawford) This is consistent with the scarcity pattern I've observed. The discovery of the double (at least) printed Stone (no arms) refutes my thoughts on the sheet layouts. I have been operating under the assumption that the sheets were formatted similar to the other small candy issues of the era; 25 or 30 card sheets with no duplication. The Stone clearly proves that false. It is, however, consistent with the relative difficulty of this subject, one of the very common ones. Thanks again to everyone. Keep 'em coming!
