Default E104/D359/T208 Questions

I'm normally a mainstream T-card guy, but I've always enjoyed this set (or sets) - but don't know much about it. Here are some q's so I can educate myself:

1) Why are blank backed cards assumed to be Nadjas as opposed to another issue (kind of like E92 Dockman is cataloged apart from E101)?

2) Understanding that the Athletics were world champs, why were these cards only issued by New Jersey and New York State bakeries, and obscure tobacco company (also in NY) and Nadja? No Pennsylvania bakeries had the team spirit?

3) Is there any surviving documentary evidence as to how these were distributed by the bakeries or Cullivan? (ads, display pieces)?

Thanks in advance.
