E94 Overprint Research

[gabrinus]

That's a great checklist Jay...went through my old checklist and you have the four I had...Jerry

Cool post. I can confirm another one on your list.

Not a Your Safe Cuckoo or Opie Dildock collector, but enjoyed the research anyways. Thought I would provide a breakdown of the background colors of the 61 on your list that include this information:

Olive - 13
Blue - 13
Purple - 11
Green - 11
Gold - 9
Red - 4

As can be seen, red is the runt of the litter, with only 4 examples. Any ideas out there on how this list lines up with the color distribution of regular (non-overprint) E94 cards?

Great observation, Brian - I saw the same thing, but wondered if it's just a matter of not having a big enough sample size.
But I definitely did wonder about it, since Tris Speaker is my focal area, and there is one overprint of Speaker in each color, except for red.

Wow, this was an unknowingly lucky buy.
