Among the items shown as a result, are these T175 proofs. T175 was done shortly before the New York privacy laws at the turn of the century, and was printed on the package flap instead of inserted. A typewritten note reads "No privileges or consent was given by these great men to publish their pictures.", followed by a handwritten note in Fullgraff's penmanship that looks to me to say "And not one kick [lick?]. They like it".

Inside look at how subject 'rights' were viewed before they had to secure rights. Fulgraff and the lithographers would excise any mention of tobacco or exactly what the images would be used for in the contracts they secured from subjects a few years later, which is presumably what resulted in Harry Porter's lawsuit alleging he did not give his permission (and Honus Wagner's confusion?).
