Hi, Ted, Happy Holidays. This topic reminds me of standing before a Shakespeare class and explaining that 'Shakespeare' is just a pen name. It makes the crowd upset.
My only concern in this post is the theory about paper loss on the back. I have not noticed a pattern of paper loss on the ones I have. Take care, all.

Rob Happy Holidays to you....and, I got a over your "Shakespeare" analogy. Here is another one of my cards with a back problem. This one, though, only has cardboard residue on it from being pasted on a cigarette carton. Which I'd say proves my theory that some of these 1910 COUPON cards were pasted on the COUPON Cigarette cartons. . TED Z T206 Reference . |

Are the 1910 COUPON (T213-1) cards really T206's ? ....I think so. ....What say you ?
Any given day on ebay you can dial up T213 Coupon cards, and you will typically find approx. 200 cards listed. The majority
of them will be T213-2 cards. And, on the average as many as 20 % of them will be T213-3 cards. Very seldom will you find even one "T213-1" card listed for sale. It's obvious to me the 1910 COUPON cards were not designed to be inserted in the standard (10-cigarette) pack of that era. My theory is they were either...... simply handed out to customers purchasing this new ATC brand, or pasted on a 200-count cigarette cartons,, or just placed inside one of these cartons. In any event, this Willett was most likely the latter case. As it is the best looking 1910 COUPON card in my collection. . Collecting these cards, I have noticed that approx. 10 % (or perhaps as much as 15 %) of them have this type of paper loss on their backs (which most likely resulted because these cards pasted on cigarette cartons). The repetitive spot-like spoilage on these cards is too consistent to blame it on some random cause. . This one, though, has faint cardboard residue on it from also being pasted on a cigarette carton. Apparently, whoever removed this card from a carton did it very, very carefully. I've seen very few 1910 COUPON cards (less than 1%) exhibiting this type of minimal back damage. . TED Z T206 Reference . |

Coupon
Ted - I had another Greminger at one point, and traded/sold it to someone in this Net54 community but that was many years ago. This is the only one I own now and it does comprise my SL run of Coupons. Took me well over 10 years to get all 20. As I mentioned in earlier posts, the grading companies are very inconsistent on grading these puppies. I have several that are off by a grade to a grade and a half both ways.
