I am sure this has been discussed elsewhere, but I have always wondered if the T202 panels were intended to be separated into three "cards". It seems odd that Hassan would have separate ads on each panel, three times saying the same thing--"Hassan Cork Tip Cigarettes"--as well as provide separate frames for each panel, unless they at least contemplated that the panels would be separated. I don't know what technology existed for providing perforations or if that would have been too costly, but the layout of the cards also seems conducive to separation (unlike t201s, which were best kept intact because the fold-able sections shared part of the same litho).
