It wasn't unusual for the tobacco companies to utilize everything they had at their disposal - their advertising plan (along with Duke) was uber expensive and they didn't waste much. I'll look to see if there are any updates in later volumes. I hear from across the pond that Martin Murray will be updating. Sure this is MUCH more than you care to know. At least I'm having fun for a minute or two....

nuttin in 4 or 5 - surprised but it's not that unusal.
No! This is exactly what I was wanting to know! There seems to be nearly identical cropped 1st image above (or a 3rd image) used on an 1892 N53 from the Burdick collection.

So is the theory that the negatives would somehow degrade and they would use a different one, or are the variations intentional?
