That makes a lot of sense Ted. Though I have long suspected the Factory 3 Anons to be an intended Coupon release, it does seem strange that they would use entirely different artwork (and quite possibly another printer as you have suggested) and then revert back to American Litho with previously used artwork just a couple of years later with the T213's. Perhaps L&M was in a transitional phase and legally unable to use American Litho during the divestiture procedings (which would have been occurring just as the T207's were beginning the design phase) but then was able to renegotiate with American Litho in time for the kickoff of the T213-2 release 2 years later.
