Default Tobacco cards: what was the original art medium?

Posted By: Anonymous

All of this is very interesting and helpful, so thank you.

One final question: if the T206 Honus Wagner is a reproduction of a photograph, why does it not look at all as such? It is much cruder and "lower resolution" than a photograph, and looks instead like a drawing or painting - sort of like old-school "comic book" art.

Thanks again!
