The more I study the "Monster", the more I agree with what you said regarding the classifying of T206's by T-brand sub-sets.

If Jefferson Burdick considered doing this back then, then in all these years since, we would have identified the actual number
of Subjects comprising each of the 15 (or 16) Tobacco brands.

And, this set would not be the "Monster" that it is due to all its front/back permutations. However, had American Litho. equally
printed all 522 Subjects with each T-brand, then "lumping" together and calling this set "T206" does make sense.

But, as we all know, this was not the way T206's were printed.
