Without a doubt the T216 cards are the "scarcest". The KOTTON brand is somewhat
less scarce in this group. But, the MINO is really tough to find, and VIRGINIA EXTRA
cards are seldom seen.

What I find really interesting about the T216's is that the fronts are identical to
the E-cards of that era. Must of been produced by the same printing firm based in
the greater Philadelphia area. And, these cards were marketed with the People's
choice Cigarettes in the New Orleans area (circa 1911-16).
