Hi Ted. I was replying to Rhett's post (#25 above, since edited). A thousand apologies for the hijack.

[tedzan]

At this point, with as many as 10 confirmed Brown OLD MILL Southern Leaguer's, I think there is a fair probability that there will
be more reported.

As far as them being legit, in my opinion they are the result of mistaken printing; therefore, they should be considered as "scrap".

I will be posting further information on this topic later tonight (or tomorrow). Meanwhile, keep the inputs rolling in.

Guys, I think JP's post #23 about the little splash of brown ink in the bottom right corner might be VERY significant! It appears on every brown Old Mill in this thread, although I'm having a hard time seeing it on the graded Helm in post #7. If this is a "real" marker, it would be a big deal, no?! Why no comments on this?

Clear up some confusion re/ ink spot - Jim's Revelle OM Brown is the only scan w/ ink spot. The other scan in this thread (Helm), does not have one. Also, I think Ted inadvertantly counted Brown Hindu Ellam as a Brown Old Mill reverse. Jim and I were comparing color backs from Brown Hindu, Brown Old Mill, and Black Old Mill. We did this in a handful of post, including the BL and Lenox scans. Ted, unless some one claims a Ellam Brown Old Mill, strike it from your list. Also, JP's point is a good one, but unfortunately I think he is looking at the same Brown Old Mill Revelle card in several post. Maybe I missed something, so please double check me, but I think there are only 2 Brown Old Mill Scans in this entire thread. Obviously the scans coupled with many SL names, have contributed to the confusion.

Thanks Jeremy
I misconstrued youy post (I was dazzled by all those pictures). I have unconfirmed Ellam as a Brown OLD MILL.

So far, we have 10 confirmed Brown OLD MILL's

Jeremy is correct-all the same back scan. I have scans of 3 different and about 4 to 6 coming. I only own one-the Revelle Jerry used to own -the ONE with the mark of ink in the corner.

I think most of the above scans are of the same back, need to blow the tops ones up some more though.
