Parallels
Each card is available as a "Reciprocal" parallel. As the name suggests, for the Reciprocals the photo on the front of the base card is transferred to the back and vice versa. In addition, each card is sequentially-numbered with an "R" prefix.
Each card is serial-numbered to 750 copies, with the Technicians subset numbered to 100.
