Default no one knows ANYTHING about tobacco card artists?!?!?!?

Posted By: J Levine

Most of the art for the Obaks, t-3s, t206s, etc. if I recall are colored (painted) copies of photographs. Many are from Horner photos (like the Wagner). It was probably some graphic artist who was just hired to look at the pics and paint them in the tones that were going to be used in the printing process...

Ted Z. might have more info. on this but this is what I recall reading in the past.
