Mapping out the T206 sheets....check-out the A-B-C-D lists
Information dating back to the early 20th Century regarding printing presses, notes that a 19-inch wide track press was used
by American Litho. for their color lithography printing. Therefore, when you consider that the T206's are 1 1/2 inch wide, this
results in 12 cards per row.
Furthermore, the total card count of each of the T206 series (150, 350, 460, and Southern League) are multiples of 12.
P.S......Schmidt Litho. of San Francisco used a much wider track press to print their OBAK cards. This is totally unrelated to
the printing of the T206's.
