LSRNs: 1882 Value Backs


Once I discovered a replacement 1902 Plain Back, I realized that there should exist replacement 1882 Value Backs of the same style.  An earlier look through the NBN Census (www.nbncensus.com) revealed exactly zero hits, but I did get lucky while searching through the Heritage archives (www.ha.com).  There I found two replacements.

Like the 1902 Plain Backs, one of the replacements I found has the "hybrid" font with the old style 2 and 3, and a newer looking 4.  The other one does not have a 4 in the serials, so it is hard to determine if it is of the old style or the hybrid style.  I feel that we will find 1882 Value Backs with the old style 4.   Here is the summary for Value Backs to date:
