Default Information wanted on the American Lithographic Company

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

The 15 basic T-brands of the T206's (and their myriad Factory variations), the 1910 Coupon's,
and the Cobb (Cobb back) were all produced by the American Lithographic Company in NYC.

Furthermore, I'd venture to say that all the following Tobacco cards were also produced in NYC:

BASEBALL

T200
T201
T202
T203
T205
T211
T213-2
T213-3
T214
T215
T227
T3

BOXING

T218
T219
T220
T225

NON-SPORTS

T2 - T222 (Movie Stars, Military Men, Indians, Birds, etc.)

And, there are more Trading card sets....these are the ones that quickly pop into my mind.

Joseph Palmer Knapp (ALC founder) was as ambitious a man as his very close associate......
James Buchanan Duke (ATC). Knapp cornered the Litho. market by acquiring such well-known
Lithographers like Geo. Harris & Sons Litho. (Phila.), and other printing companies. And, as is
evident with some of the above sets, ALC continued to produce cards of all sorts for several
years after the 1911 break-up of ATC....until 1916 (WWI).
