If one brand produced cards for distribution in 15 count packs, why not others? In other words, why haven't we found thinner SC, Broadleaf, etc. cards. American Beauty was far from the ATC's most popular brand. I'm just not sure i can buy into the notion that this brand alone would have had distribution with other count sizes other than a 10-pack.

I wonder if they ran test markets back then for new products or configurations? That would make sense since why change the way you manufacure the cards from the other 14 or so brands? Either that or they should not be considered T206.......
