I was kind of hoping to wind-down the T206/T213 discussion for now, at least from my side. The reason I have been able to collect-up so many Coupons is that T213 cards have always been viewed as some sort of inferior knock-off to T206, less-so today than in the past.

Hi Rob, I know G1911 replied about the T36's but I wanted to add some more information.

There are two pages on the T36's in the journal one for Mecca and one for Hassan. The dates are when they first started packing and shipping.

on some of the pages they went back and noted when that particular insert
was discontinued but many of them they didn't. Also some of them say to
pack and ship for 30 or 60 days but not all of them.

If you look at the Hassan page for the auto drivers you can see it says
discontinued packing Lighthouse pictures and substituted auto drivers.

Here's an earlier Hassan page that has the Lighthouses

They started packing on 1-26-11 and shipping on 1-28-11 this indicates they were
distributed around 60 days so the auto drivers were probably distributed for either 30 or 60 days.
