Transportation Coil Series Line Pairs

Am I complete in my Transportation Coil subcollection of joint
line pairs.

I don't collect line pairs or plate number coils, but ... there is a 2132a (Stanley Steamer, precanceled & untagged, type I) that does have a line as well as a plate number. You only show 2132 (tagged type I).
Added: Just found one more ... 2128a (untagged precanceled ambulance).
If you aren't interested in the minor tagging or precancel varieties, the two above items may not be of interest.

Thank you kindly for the info.

Stampfan9, there are several more if you are interested in precancelled ones. If you are let me know and I will work on a list for you.

Peter

Peter, that would be great.

Stampfan9, here is the list.
Please note, the Transportation was printed by three sets of presses mainly - the Cottrells, the B press and the C, D presses. Of these only the stamps printed on the Cottrells show a joint- or seam line even though some collectors still call a pair with the plate number on the left side a "line pair". Also, when we identify a coil stamp we count from the sometimes imaginary line either left or right, like 1L or 5R.

Hope this list helps you out - I don't believe I forgot anything!

Peter

Peter... you have an obvious typo on your list. 1908a should read 1906a. The rest of the numbers look good to me.
... John ...

Thank you John. When I make a list like that my age is starting to show and the difference between a six and an eight goes away!

Peter

John, Peter, thanks for the wonderful information. Peter your much appreciated list is a bit intimidating but the work to come in paring it down should be fun.
Robert

Robert ... To simplify your chore, just note that Peter's list has 28 different catalogue numbers. Your photo has 18 items, all of which are major tagged varieties. So you're really only missing 10 items, all of which are minor untagged (and precanceled) varieties. Just look for those items in Peter's list that have lower case letters in their catalogue numbers!
Added: Note that I have assumed that you are not interested in all the different plate numbers. If you decide to start collecting all the plate numbers as well, then you really do have a lot of work to do. Good luck!

John, thanks for the guidance. Peter's list, as is will be going into my modern series binder with the hope that upon my death one of my family will continue the collection to completion. That would be awesome. Go Dawgs!

How do I interpret the ampersand? I know the plates on this was 2,3,4,6,8, and 10.

1897A 2 cent Locomotive 2&6, 3&4 and 8&10

Those were the pairings of the plates. Someone sent me an email wanting the plate pairings on the Transportation Coils and I figured this would be a good way to combine two requests,

Peter
