The holder tells you what series the card on the far left is. It says 1910 SC so it's a 350 the other two cards are P150 cards.

Darn, wrong again. I didn't look much at the holders at all.

Just goes to show how complex these can really get.

And if they're actually multiple printings with the same back it will be even more complicated.

PS I'm not too worried, with science and backfiguring stuff being wrong happens. If I learn from being wrong that's good.

Here's a Polar Bear back that probably came from the top of the sheet.

It has a large top front border with no residue from another name, plus the top of the back has the printing messed up (the black fuzzy stuff near the top is black ink) - my guess is that this would be more likely to happen at the top of the top row of cards, but hopefully Steve will bring his opinion.

I've seen a few PBs like that.

They're too crisp for having too much water on the plate.
The other choices are plate wear, or the blanket not having enough backing or being worn.

I won't be able to get to it for a few days, but I've got some scanning to do. Probably 5 or 6 cards with large uppper borders, and a few with fairly big lower borders. The only one I'm sure the lowere border is big enough is Burch. That one has a sliver of what's probably another Burch at the bottom.

Thanks, Steve - the black 'checkered' pattern at the top is kind of weird. I had another one that was similar, but didn't think much about it and sold it. Looks like the rubber didn't quite meet the road at the top.
