FYI....1910 COUPON checklist (T213-1)

[tedzan]

Dated Oct 6, 2020

The 68 cards in the 1910 COUPON set are derived from an early press run (Spring 1910) of the 350 series of the T206 set. American Lithographic printed these cards
on thinner cardboard stock than the regular T206 cards, because these cards were not intended to serve as cigarette pack STIFFINERS. This brand was introduced to
the market packaged in cartons labelled "COUPON" that contained approx. 100 cigarettes. A standard 10-cigarette pack labelled "COUPON" has never been found.
In my opinion, it does not exist.
All 68 subjects are identical in every respect to their T206 "cousins". These cards were issued in the Spring/Summer of 1910. Note the similarity in the stylistic design
of the backs of these T206 advertisements and this COUPON advertisement......
