As you said....the 1912 date is from the tax stamp on it. Which does NOT
tell us when this Cobb tobacco or this Cobb card was marketed.
Please check-out Post #81 here, where the early Spring 1910 Newspaper
clippings clearly tell us when these Cobb cards were in circulation.

I'm not speculating that this is when the cards were made available. I was
just pointing out the date on the stamp for the distribution of this tobacco/tin.
As far as I know no one is sure the cards were even in these tins.
I did see post #81 and I don't see where it "clearly tells us when the cards
were circulated". I also don't see a date on any of the newspaper clippings.
