Your pointing out the similarities in the back designs is the best evidence I've seen. I agree that there's definitely a connection between the ABCD backs and Coupon backs. I'm just not sure how to account for it.
The Demmitt and O'Hara St. Louis cards are interesting. They're exemplary cases of ATC/ALC "updating" their card sets when a player changed teams. There are many other such examples throughout T206 cards. Which is why I scratch my head at the possibility that they released a set of cards with more than a quarter of them showing guys playing for the wrong teams.

P.S. Brian, you keep teasing us...
