<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Daggarjon, post: 221095, member: 4230&quot;]I have come across 2 sites that have been helpfull to me --</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.quadrigaancients.com/web/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.quadrigaancients.com/web/" rel="nofollow">http://www.quadrigaancients.com/web/</a></p><p>and</p><p><a href="http://www.webpressnotes.com/websearch.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.webpressnotes.com/websearch.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.webpressnotes.com/websearch.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I have always been interested in obtaining a complete set of Web notes. Lately, through answering posts on this forum, i have looked into the series a bit more. The 2 sites i listed are the ones i have recently found that are most helpful. First off, i was only under the impression that web-fed notes were printed much like the normal notes ... notes were printed by district.. but instead of plate position leters and numbers... web-fed press notes had plated numbers. With reading and researching a bit, i found that there were 11 plates used (although some notes have a plate #12) and each web note has a special combination of front/back plates numbers .. thus making each district of each year having multiple of notes. </p><p><br /></p><p>I have found that a complete collection of 1988-a web notes is NOT a set including districts A,B,C,E,F,F*, and G ... Instead, a full set include the combinations of series, block, run # and plate number combinations. in the end, instead of 14 notes comprising the entire stretch of web-fed press notes .. if one counts all the &#039;unique&#039; variables involved int he making of web-fed press notes... aquiring a &#039;full&#039; set now includes some 240+ notes. to make matters worse, some notes have less then 5 known. </p><p><br /></p><p>I am guessing that normal notes could also be broken down into this same style of thinking, where each series could also be collected by block, run and plate position letters/numbers... but for &#039;normal&#039; notes, the combination of all these variables would result in an astronomicaly huge number of notes - JUST to complete the series. </p><p><br /></p><p>So - Does ANYBODY else collect web-fed press notes in this manner -- or, if you collect them at all.. how do you collect them?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
