Catalog numbers in parentheses reference the catalog number assigned to earlier editions of the Springer catalog, before the extensive renumbering in the 9th and 10th editions. Series 102 through 125 cigarette stamps were issued in panes of 100, without plate numbers or other marginal markings. Very few full panes have been reviewed. It is possible that plate numbers appear on proof sheets, either from the National Postal Museum archives or in collectors' hands from the Smithsonian de-accession. Please report any plate number examples.
