Nice Ted, kept my example as well. As mentioned Tinker is oddly tough (thanks Ryan!).

I have a couple. The bat off is much more difficult than the red.

I would like to add a Matty Dark cap P42 to my run at some point. I have only one so far. Overall, definitely a tough back to track down.

To clarify, David Hall did not complete the PD 42 run. He was missing the Chase Trophy and for many years had PSA convinced it did not exist. The subset is very difficult to complete. There are many cards that seem to show up more often than others. Then the opposite happens with the Tinker batting, Donlin, Schlei Portrait and the Evers as well to name a few. I collected the back run of these because I needed a fun rare back challenge and I live in NC. It was a 5 year or so journey that cost quite a bit of money( once people know you want them you are in trouble, at least I was) but was fun to complete. Teds list of 72 are the ones that have been seen. There are 4 that are speculated to exist but have not been proven to exist. Value is all over the place. The higher grades start to rival other similar difficult backs but the low grade average around 2-3X. Didn't mean to ramble on but these have been a passion.

Adam, ramble on brother. You're one of the authorities on P42.

He should have asked me; I had one for many years and it was the only one I had!

Do we really know the POP's given some of the older Piedmonts are logged in as regular backs?

There are some great looking 42s shown. And some have very dark back print, a big bonus. Many moons ago, when I was doing my T206 back run, 42s were actually one of the tougher ones relative to some other toughies. As is always mentioned, they don't get their just dues but then again, they are only a factory change.
