Default New theory regarding the T206 brown LENOX cards....show us some of these rare dudes

Thanx Sean,

We finally have a brown LENOX card on display here.


Look guys......at the tail-end of American Litho's T206 production (circa....Jan - Mar 1911), they printed LENOX, PIEDMONT Factory 42, and UZIT cards.
These press runs were short-printed; and, coincided with the beginning of the T80 press runs. One thing is very obvious with the print runs of the T206
PIEDMONT Factory 42 and UZIT cards, the BLUE ink application was not very consistent. Illustrated here are such examples......





..



I cannot otherwise understand how these brown LENOX cards got into circulation, other than my CAIRO MONOPOL "connection".

However, I am open to any other explanations that sound possible.
