I agree with Ron's conclusion. Evidence indicates that the starch back titles came out sometime in the late spring or summer of 1945. They were never an authorized issue. It is interesting that a lot of starch backs are copied from earlier metlon titles. There are errors in many starch back issues. Wrong colours or designations that were changed. The NNSH pattern had "Canada" added.
