Further Thoughts about Red Cobb with Cobb back

I like Richard's idea, creating a fourth type of Coupon. I think T206 most closely resembles T213 Type 1 anyway.

Each of the 15 brands printed roughly 100 to 400+ of each player, so it is safe to say all made an attempt to issue some kind of collectable set. But to issue only a single pose, available only in a very specific geographic area, does not make for a set.

There are some theories that T206 should really be 15 different sets. Why aren't N172 and N175 considered the same set? They share the same photography, and the only thing that distinguishes them is the banner at the top. I know this is digressing a bit, but my point is there is a lack of consistency as to what determines a set, and I think the Cobb back is not consistent with the way T206 was distributed.
