Hey Leute,

hab gerade erst gelernt (als Sammler von losen Figuren gbts immer was neues bezüglich Karten), dass manche Karten sogenannte "Factory Codes" besitzen.

Ich würde gerne mehr darüber erfahren. Würde mir bei meinen Nachforschungen unheimlich helfen!

Jegliche Art von bisher ungenannten "Factory Codes" bitte posten.

Auch shipping boxen enthalten bisweilen die "Codes" und den "Hersteller". Bilder von soclhen Boxen wären äußerst hilfreich!


Zusammenfassung der bisherigen Erkenntnisse die ich sammeln konnte:


FACTORY CODES ON CARDBACKS:


1. Prior to 41 backs:
No Factory Codes present.

2. 41 backs - 48 backs:
Factory Codes present next to the pop:
K ("Kader" of Hong Kong)
U ("Unitoys" of Hong Kong)
S ("Smile")

3. 48 backs ROTJ :
Factory codes present on the bottom corner of the cardback:

TJ (Taiwan)
TW (Taiwan)
TC (Taiwan)

HN (Hong Kong)
HT (Hong Kong, Unitoys)
HG (Hong Kong, Kader.)

ME (Macau)

Der erste Buchstabe schein das Land/Gebiet zu kennzeichnen: T=Taiwan, M=Macau und H=Hong Kong.
Der zweite Buchstaben ist der "Factory Code"??


ASSUMED/KNOWN FACTORIES:

The Company also started its Mainland operations, opening its first factory in the border town of Shekou in 1983.

The move allowed Kader to overcome labour supply constraints in Hong Kong, making room for further growth. Led by sons Dr. Dennis Ting (currently the non-executive Chairman of Kader Holdings Company Limited) and Mr. Kenneth Ting, the Company was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 1985.

... ist sonst auch wunderbar im Kellerman beschrieben.
Muss da auch immer nachschauen, weil ich mir den ganzen A-B-C-Kram nicht merken kann.
Gerade auch 20-, 21- usw. Backs.
