I am sorry Ted I misnamed you Frank by accident
As is obvious here in my scan, the
back design is essentially identical for all 5 of these T206 brands. This tells us that these backs were drawn by the
same artist at ALC, and in the same timeframe.
Also your Theory that just because they are all made or drawn by the same guy they were printed at the same time frame. Holds water like a bucket full of holes. Has there never been printing plates made for print runs then put awayt and a few yrs later brought back out and some mods made and reused?I am looking at this from a logical piont of view. We know that there are several backs of the same design. You have dating for those in the appropriate time frames. Coupons

. So they could date from 1909-1913 right.
we have documentation that indicates that the American Litho. Co. (ALC) printed
and issued the American Beauty 350 cards in the Summer of 1910. Between the Summer and Fall of 1910, ALC also
printed and issued the Broad Leaf 350, Coupon #1, Cycle 350, and Drum cards.
If you have or it is definite that there is documents that 100% name and support that Coupons were printed in that date and during the T206 runs then this should have never been a disscussion because it is for 100% sure a T206 and has been misclassified and needs to be adjusted to its correct identifier. This would make the Type 2's and 3's into 1's and 2' then or make them T206-2's and 206-3's.
