T206 are not T206.

They're different brands of tobacco premiums issued over a period of three years. The issue that we know as T213-1 also fits into that model.


Hi Frank. Is the only reason you disagree because of the paper difference?

Do you also think E97 black and whites should be called something different?
How about the two different E107 types? Both have clearly different paper types (one thinner). I'm sure we can think of some more.

The really funny thing about the thin paper argument is that TYPE 1 COUPONS ARE ALSO THINNER THAN TYPE 2 AND TYPE 3! They have more in common with several T206 brands then with the other coupon brands.

I don't really care to tell you truth if "T213-1" is known as "T206." Those labels shouldn't really mean much to folks that collect the cards in my opinion.

By the way, I've "held" a couple dozen type 1s. I like em!

Happy collecting everyone.

Rob
