Default Let's continue the T213-1 debate....are they really T206's ?

I don't understand how Obaks have anything to do with this, but T215 should be in this discussion as well.


The players and captions for T213 type 1 are the same as those found in T206.


T215 Red Cross type 1s do have the brown lettering similar to T206 and T213-1, but at least one case where the caption is different which places the issue into 1912.

I haven't seen this card, but Lew Lipset's Encylopedia confirms a T215 type 1 of Clark Griffith with Washington.

I believe the T213-1 cards are T206.

The only argument against is the thinner stock, but perhaps the Louisiana factory used cheaper paper to save money.
