Donnie,
ATC had the cards printed up based on regional brand demand. Sweet Caporal was more popular in the Northeast than in the mid-Atlantic, hence more factory 30s than factory 25s. (Piedmont was the dominant brand in the mid-Atlantic).
Here are the Lumley pops from my most recent survey:
Piedmont 150 = 71
Sweet Cap 150 = 44
Sovereign 150 = 3
Brown Hindu = 1
EPDG = 6
Old Mill = 1
Piedmont 350 = 12
Sweet Cap 350 = 6
I don't have a factory breakdown, but I would venture to say a substantial majority of both the Sweet Cap 150s and 350s would be factory 30. So I think you have your work cut out, especially on the SC 350/25. Happy hunting!
Scot
Edited to add: You picked a difficult subject to start with. N for Lumley in my survey is only 144, compared to about 200 for a typical common.
