Next is Bryan portrait c. 1900. Pin point paper speck off at the base of his neck on the right. Still displays NM. Next is TR with NM luster frame. A few very tiny and very faint age dots by his eye at left and on the lower left of his mouth. VF. Last is Parker with Mint luster frame. Celluloid has three small brown age dots on the portrait. There is a Taft piece made in the same format that shows up much more frequently that any of these. A scarce group.
