I will concede more time is needed. Of course what he cataloged may not be accurate when put in context of other things. All I am saying is that I am not convinced because of my stated view and the reasons given.
And btw, I think collectors can accept type 1s as being T206. It doesn't hurt my feelings. But in conversation I will give my views based on information I have. I think the whole Coupon set is kind of interesting.

There is more distinction in the other 2 Coupons relative to Type 1 than there is with Type 1 Coupon to the 16 ATC brands that comprise T206.
I think more time is needed, but to say Burdick got it right and Burdick is correct may not be accurate. It may be that Burdick simply did what he wanted to (Based on what Burdick knew at the time) when cataloging the Coupons together which is neither right or wrong.
As for the debate among collector's. It may be time for a poll which changes nothing according to Burdick's ACC, but does help collectors understand that it may not be a different type of card and just accept that as the gospel.
