Default T-206 and the Tobacco Cos.
Posted By: davidcycleback

Yes. No.

The American Tobacco Company owned the other companies. Cards and similar items inserted into products have been widely used from the 1880s to today, so it's doubtful anyone doubted it's in general commercial usefulness. That so many T206s were saved and are still around suggests it's success as a promotion.
