Thanks to all that participated in last years R114 survey. Tallied over 1100 cards, this one will be much lower. I will edit this post to reflect the new additions to keep things simple. You can either post totals in this thread or email me privately if you prefer. Will start with these 7 questions, if I'm overlooking something, anyone please chime in.

A)total black back cards****29 cards****
B)total blue back cards****99 cards****
C)any black back w/the word absolutely hyphenated****3 cards****
D)blue back not hyphenated****0 cards****
E)last line starts 38 Everett****71 cards****
F)last line starts Gold Brand****28 cards****
G)does the back of Harrison card list Benjamin or William**Ben. 6/Will. 3

Here are the results as of 7-13-08, did get a few private emails, not all questions answered, so just added what I was sent.



Would appreciate more additions, thanks.

Richard--I don't have all mine at home, but here's preliminary (also my totals don't agree because I have many cards with the bottom panel cut off)

1. Blue back=29
2. Black back=3
3. Black Hyphenated=zero
4. Blue not hyphenated = zero

I would also be interested in how many have the last line at bottom beginning with "38" as opposed to "Gold"
Gold bottom=3 (all blues)
38 bottom=18


PS---forgot to add both my Harrisons say Benjamin

I think you overlooked that it appears you've asked SEVEN questions?

Richard, thanks for doing this...it is a neat little set. I did an article on this for the Wrapper years ago so I'll be happy to dust off the cobwebs and think about it again. I always thought it was an interesting bit of trivia that it was the only set I know that has more card numbers than cards. I'll look at mine tonight and let you know what I find.

For those who may have cards but unfamiliar with the variations, here are some.
