Plus this "special batch" could have been delivered to the West Virginia coal mining areas or the railroad builders in remote places where practically nobody saved the cards.
There are too many 'ifs' and 'could have beens' for me. Given we've seen several of the other T206 variations and scarce cards survive the tests of time and other factors (Doyle, Magie, Plank, Wagner to name 4), I suspect we'd have seen more than one 'legit' version by now. But that's just my opinion.
