What's New on this page -- changes since 07-01-2022:
06-30-2024:
      Added #973, the "Type" numbers for the GP crops at the top of the page, and started converting this page from "Servicer" to "Cachetmaker". Further research has found no proof that he designed and printed the cachets. What I did NOT find, was that anybody else was involved in the production of these FDCs over the 32 years and 3 different paper companies where Mickey Alogna was employed.
