Default Why do some T cards use the same player picture?

I'm just getting into collecting tobacco cards outside t206's and have a dumb question.

Why do many tobacco sets all use the same picture for most of their players?

For example why is the 1914 t213 Coupon set "virtually" identical, each sharing the same player pics? t213 was not produced by the Am. Tob Co. correct?

Are there players in the t213 set NOT featured in the t206 set? If so I cant seem to find them.

Finally, legally, how is it allowed that these tobacco companies can use this seemingly proprietary artwork without disputes arising?

Thanks so much in advance for your help on this one!
