47. Poster Cards Issued with Numbers Higher than 291015

Through the years there were a few cards that were issued with numbers higher than 291015. These appear to have been issued in 1988  through 1989. One could guess that they had a numerical error in their system and instead of fixing it and changing a lot of numbers they simply chose a non sequence number far out of the range they were currently in.
