Robert - Like you said anything is possible. We can make a pretty educated guess as to when the cards were created given they only copied 8 of the Virginia State League T206 images. These were the 8 that were printed with Hindu backs. Had they created the set just a little later using Old Mill or Piedmont cards, they would have had all 12 Virginia State League T206 images to copy.
Your theory of two cards being inserted into each package is very plausible. They were copying T206 images and if they were also mimicking their packaging the Hindu's had two cards inserted into each pack.
Thanks for your comments.
