Lumping vs. Splitting
Having been a 206 collector for two decades+, my gut tells me that Brian is right. It seems that a decision was made by Burdick to lump American Beauty, Broadleaf,, Piedmont, etc, but not the 1910 issues of Coupon and Red Cross. That, in my opinion, was wrong. I think that seeing subsequent issues of those cards where none existed from 206 clouded his opinion as to the initial release. T207 Red Cross is "lumped" with the Recruit/Napoleon/Broadleaf backs; why not the same for T206/T215-1?
