If I recall correctly, you have a printing background; therefore, you appreciate my contention that American Lithographic's (ALC) printing press was an 18" (or 19") track
machine that printed the T206's and T205's. This track width translates to 12 - T206 size (1 7/16 " ) cards across a given sheet. This is a constant. The length of these sheets is a variable which possibly comprised of as many as 144 (12 rows x 12 across) T206 cards.
Furthermore, we have examples of lithographic sheets (and posters) printed at ALC that are 18" wide.......
An 18" wide x 33" long sheet of PIEDMONT cigarette packs.
Patrick recently posted a RECRUIT advertising poster (18" wide x 24" long).
Last year at an Antique shop in Paradise (Pennsylvania), there was an original PIEDMONT advertising poster identical in size to the above noted RECRUIT advertising poster (18" wide x 24" long).
