MISCELLANY - Numbered
|
The backs of the cards in
this group appear in one of two styles, both
printed in black. Some show a detailed
engraving of the Arbuckle factory buildings and
docks, in a horizontal format, while others
contain only the standard "Four
Points" sales pitch (Type
'5'), in a vertical format, explaining the
virtues of Arbuckles' Ariosa Coffee.
To the best of my knowledge, any given card number may be found with one or the other of these styles, but not both. The numbers that I have (or know of) associated with each style are: Factory Scene: 51-53, 55, 57, 61, 64, 65, 74-77, 80, 83, 84, 90-92, 93, 96-100 The "Four Points": 54, 56, 58-60, 62, 63, 66-73, 78, 79, 81, 82, 85-89, 94, 95 |
