38-690 Back Cover
#8

As I recall, Eddie set things up only to have someone from the West Coast (do not remember who) chime in that he was tooling up to make backs. Eddie backed off...and the other guy made a few backs for himself and some friends, and that was the end of it.

Edit: It was a fellow calling himself "shutterdialradio". His repro backs looked very nice.

Edit #2: Upon reading all of the posts slowly instead of speed-reading as I do all too often, "shutterdialradio" made it very clear that he was only making a very limited run of a few backs in his posts and never promised to go into production. I wanted to be sure and mention this. I'm not trying to bad-mouth anyone, I certainly have no ax to grind in this topic. I like and respect Eddie, I don't know shutterdialradio but he seems to be one of the good guys also.
