Default T206 Museum is back up!

Clarification:

The only piedmont series of cards to appear in 1917 packs are T119's. (World Scenes and Portraits) And that's questionable according to Robert Forbes book on American Tobacco Cards. He states that they were issued between 1912-1917. The following are the only series ever issued by Piedmont cigarettes:

Non Sports:

T42 Fish 1910-1911
T58 Birds 1910
T119 World Scenes and Portraits 1912-1917

Sports:

T205 Gold Border 1911
T206 White Border 1909-1911
T 330-2 Art Stamps 1914

If anything, you would find a T119 in a 1917 Piedmont Pack (Factory 25, 2nd District, VA) What baffles me, is how no one else ever found a piedmont card in the millions and millions of packs sold after 1917. Pat Chan made up the story about a card being pulled from this pack.
