Notes

Many partial runs with internal gaps exist in the star notes, but it is not known exactly which runs are partial or exactly how long the gaps are. Many of the star note serial ranges and printage totals given here are thus rather rough estimates.

In district G, the first and last runs of star notes are known to have gaps, because some of the serials in these gaps were used for Series 1950A and Series 1950C star notes, respectively. Thus some 1950A stars have higher serials than some 1950B stars, and some 1950C stars have lower serials than some 1950B stars, in district G.
