Todd, Thanks for the input. Perhaps Sheffer was merely a local competitor trying to emulate Mendelssohn's success with M101. Is it your view that the Felix Mendelssohn Company was actually founded and operated by a person with that name (as opposed to being named after the composer)? Scot

Yes, Felix was a real guy. I have some bio info from ancestry.com or someplace, and even have a scan of his signature (but no photo, yet). His son was his namesake, and wrote some less than spectacular novels such as Super Baby and Club Tycoon. His son never married, and I didn't trace his daughter's lineage.

Nice discussion guys. Felix Mendohlson did seem to be a prolific printer. I have a booklet, somewhere, put out by them. They certainly made some cool cards. I always wondered if they printed this one too? It's much larger than standard M101-4/5s.
