Jim,
an absolutely top drawer collection.
many thanks for making it available to us.
and many thanks for rejuvenating the ole T206 juices on this board.
I personally think that the apple green is not a 'must' for completing the set but is a printing process issue, as Barry S. intimates.
I do not think that the Red Cross is 206 but would sure love to have one---
that in itself might well make me change my mind!!!
I do believe the Coupon is a 206--- earlier threads on this topic convinced me
well beyond anecdotal meanderings.
With all the 'skinnings' going on in the last few years which created 'blanks', i gave up making a decision on the 'must' status of this card. Since it had no ad and therefore
no real issuance for advertising purposes, it does make me lean toward leaving
it out. Perhaps if i had one---as i said about the Red Cross--- that i was unequivocally certain was legit, then i might well change my mind!! Obviously, over this holiday, i am allowing the 'acquisition desire' have primacy over my
sound judgement.
great work, Jim

all the best,
barry
