E107, e90-2, then Henry Reccius (only two known)

Also like all the Wagner PCs shown before.

This has probably been covered before, but there was always the notion that the t206 was pulled due to Wagner's stance on tobacco use. Do we know the official reason yet? Regardless, you'll note that he is noticeably absent from almost all tobacco issues from that era, despite his immense popularity and the inclusion of his teammates in the sets (t205, Helmar Stamps, etc). Hope someone can shed some light on this (or share an old link if it's been covered before).
