British American Tobacco National Flags - SC6 1913 - set of 143 - 2 1/8" x 3 1/4" |
Contributors ----------------- Bob Forbes |
information - from Bob Forbes |
Some SC6 silks have been seen with as many as 3 different numbers; with/without serif numerals. Those with serif numerals come with/without the paper backing |
The details of the main styles and printings are summarized as follows: Style 1A = first numbering order, design 1 small letters, 143 subjects Style 1B = first numbering order, design 1 small letters, 140 subjects (w/o 141-143) (redrawn) Style 2 = second numbering order, design 2 large letters, 143 subjects The numbers shown below on the checklist are for the first and second styles respectively. There is a possibility there were more printings and additional subjects, mainly for Style 2, as several flags in a similar design as these have been seen with numbers that do not match the listing below. Further study is necessary to determine if these "odd" subjects are truly part of this series or are from some other overseas issue. |
