Default W555

Is this a new discovery that the W555 were issued through 1911? I know most TPGs have modified the date they use for this issue from 1907 to 1910. It looks like 1911 (or before) may be the new date.

I know the fairly recent discovery (and sale) of a complete box was the first known example. Previously, people did not know how the W555 were issued. This ad is significant in the dating of the issue to at least 1911.

Thanks for sharing!! Derek
