I think it is before the T205' S WERE Inserted. I was told that the pack is from the 1890's. I picked up the card at a show just to display next to the pack. I mainly collect T206 But wanted a T205 W/an HLC back. The card was very cheap no premium for the stars. Ha Ha

John-

From the scans, it appears that the pack is much later... certainly not 1890s (note the successor language on the front). If you have a scan of the tax stamp, we can date it for sure. Just based on the graphics, however, I'd say 1930s. Still a great companion piece!
