Default Do the T215-1 cards belong in the T206 set ?

Shown here are some of the stars in the T215-1 set


Since no one has responded to the question.... "Do the T215-1 RED CROSS cards belong in the T206 set ?"..... my answer is YES, and NO !

YES for the cards printed and issued circa Spring/Summer 1910....and NO for the cards printed and issued circa Spring 1912.

In the Spring/Summer of 1910, ALC was printing sheets of 350 Series (T206) cards. Furthermore, the printing of 1910 COUPON (T213-1) and RED CROSS (1st series) cards
coincided with this timeline in the printing of the various T-brands of the T206 set.

My initial analysis of the 1st series of T215-1 cards indicates that at least 23 subjects were derived from this 350 Series printing of T206's. These 23 are...…

Bender (trees)
Byrne (St Louis)
Eddie Collins (A's)
Cree
Doolan
Dubuc
Fromme
Hoblitzel
Hofman
Howard
Huggins (hands/mouth)
Kelley
Krause
Marquard (portrait)
McGinnity
Miller
Paskert
Purtell
Quinn
Speaker
Street (portrait)
Warhop
Wilson

Also from the 150/350 series, Mathewson (white cap) was included for a starting total of 24 subjects printed in the 1st series of T215-1 cards. Further research is continuing
in order to figure out how many more cards were in this 1st series.

Anyhow, let's get a meaningful discussion going here. It's amazing the BB card mysteries Net54 members have solved over the years when they share their theories.

So, let's hear your opinions regarding this subject ? ?
