First, I think brown captions on both T206s, T213-1s, and T215-1s are part of the regular printing process, when the frame is printed.

The font for the blue captions on the later T213s and T215s are of a different font. And the blue looks less intense, a bit washed out. Yet the artwork is the same as the successors. I do not think the blue captions were part of the regular blue process. I think the sheets went through a 'captions only' run. I've only been thinking this for a few days, I'd not contemplated it before Ted commenced this thread.

I think that 'adding' captions to the regular blue cycle would have been quite difficult. Removing the brown caption from the brown cycle not that difficult. So I think an extra printing pass for captions only would have been the most practicable way to deal with it.

So I envision a request being made for more cards, the expense discussed, then a fall back to just using the old images and reworking captions as a cost savings for these second quality cigarettes.
