I agree; however, not for the reason you might think.
Cigarettes are sold in packs of 20 these days. Packs with T206 cards (if I'm not mistaken) contained 10 cigarettes.
Additionally, there were (again, if I'm not mistaken) two T206 cards per pack.
Using the numbers above, someone who smoked 20 cigarettes a day - what we would call a-pack-per-day habit in 2014 - would receive 1,400 T206 cards in just under a year.
What I don't get is the number of different brands. I guess he did some trading along the way.
Just thinking out loud. I could be wrong.
