When it arrived, Patrick (stated his friend / cousin Fred) sent an email by accident in jest, claiming no card was inside, demanding a refund. It was all very strange and really upset me at the time. I told him NO and then he stated a friend / cousin 'Fred' accidentally sent the email when Patrick simply asked him to send an email confirm it arrived and was playing a trick on me. Needless to say, I kept the emails (with full headers). I was expecting a chargeback or who knows. My experience! This was the contact data:

I'm curious - was this a 10-count or a 12-count Piedmont pack? This is exactly why I still feel that 12 count packs with cards being pulled from them are creations. Rob did a great job in 2008 describing the possibilities as to how a card can be pulled from a 12 count. The thing that is clear, however, is that 12-counts weren't available until 1917.
