    DKiG x 4 with Different Backcloths

    Here are the four different DKiG cloth versions that reside in my collection. I have reviewed the numerous threads on this forum and would now like to present them for opinions, please.

    Two have the "9" die flaw, two do not. As I understand it, this is acceptable. Three have nicely detailed wreaths and one less so - and I have read that some are indeed less-detailed. All have the white satiny back cloth within the wreath - three showing a "checkered" weave and one a horizontal lines weave, both of which I have viewed here as being correct.

    It is my hope that all will pass muster, and I will be grateful for the feedback.

    Thanks in advance,

    John

                            In my opinion, #3 is a reproduction. Others are OK.

                              I go with Calvin. No. 3 is not good IMHO.
