At first glance I see (and catalog) this note with the plate combo 5/1 and continue with the balance of these well circulated web notes. I check my 2004 Handbook and the 5/1 combo does not exist, now I'm thinking maybe I discovered another plate combination since the Handbook is now 11 years old. I then send Bob Kv.Jr. a email w/photos and the photos are to small to confirm, but Bob Sr. believes it to be something else. I thought that I would post the notes here first and see what our forum members think this plate combo is before posting what Bob Kv.Sr. thinks it is... And since he couldn't see the photos I emailed to him, I'll send him the link to this thread and maybe he can view them better, and who knows, post what it could be... Report this Post to the Staff

WheatBack Pillar of the Community United States 2850 Posts	Posted 01/19/2015 11:24 pm My Scwartz/Lindquist book shows the numbers used for face plates for this series are as followed: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, and 10. It also shows the back plate numbers used are: 1-8 It appears you have a better block run too from the F57600001N-F76800000N run. Edited by WheatBack 01/19/2015 11:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Broken-Coin Pillar of the Community United States 1812 Posts	Posted 01/20/2015 12:32 pm After contacting Bob Kvederas Jr. on what I labeled a "unlisted combo number", his reply was that his father, Bob Sr. believed it to be a broken #4 and not a #1 reverse. Upon very close examination, and comparing the notes with the #1 and my note, I noticed the genuine #1 shows a small horizonal line on the top of the #1, whereas my note displays a very small angle on top (kinda like the #1 posted here). With that said, I just updated my 2004 Handbook on page #53 (F-N Block), and added a comment to the plate combo 5/4 with the notation of the "broken 4" variety.. I guess I answered my own opinion question, and at the same time if I asked anyone else that knew nothing about a broken 4, what number do they see, I would bet their answer would be a #1... (and I thought I knew all there was about web-press notes) Report this Post to the Staff
