Large bordered American Beauty
This card has always puzzled me. Side to side, it measures nearly one and a half inches, which is wider than most t206s. On inspection, it doesn't appear to have been cut from a sheet. It seems I have read a thread which debunked the notion that American Beauties were cut smaller to fit in a smaller pack, if that were true then this one would not have fit in that pack. Then again, this card may have accidently been inserted into a different brand of tobacco. I would love to see other large bordered American Beauties that board members might have.
Edit. Actually, after looking at the preview (large scan) of this post, it does appear to have an irregular cut.
