Anyone here buy the SC Cobb w/ Factory Number?

[sreader3]

Interesting that:

1. All of the cards posted so far are SC 350/30s; and

2. All of the subjects [Cobb (Bat On), Gilbert, Merkle (Portrait) and Spade] are 150/350.

Not sure what this means; just an observation.

Looked this up because I remember the thread.

I recently picked up one, but a little bit different. The beginning of the factory number can be seen on the right side of the back, and not the bottom or top. I have not seen that before. Is that a little more unusual? Why would this happen?

To boot, its a Rhoades "Right Arm Extended".

I recently purchased this t206 Ganzel and noticed a strange mark above the 'T' in Piedmont. Is this a printer's mark or something else? Has anyone else seen something like this?

Probably damage to the stone. If something gets dropped on it and scratches through the coating that holds water the scratched area will print. That mark should be consistent for a certain percentage of that card. Fairly common if the damage was early in the press run, pretty tough if it happened later.
