Have just got this box. It say Sweet Caporal. How do I tell if this was a box that T206 came in?

Any help would be appreciated

The Blue Tax Stamp says Act of Aug 5, 1909

This is on the side of the box

Factory No. 30 2nd Dist State of New York

Welcome to our board. Does the blue stamp have an overprint stamped date on it? That is the most accurate way to tell if it could have come with a card.....Then we go from there....

Sweet Caporal made 3 series of baseball cards from Factory 30. We really need to see the rest of the date to be sure there is/was at least a possibility of baseball card in it, unless of course, there is one still in it. My understanding is that even if everything is correct there is still a chance either the card wasn't a baseball card or there wasn't one at all....The best we can usually do is say that there is definitely a possibility of one coming in it. IF the date, and/or stamp are incorrect, then we can rule out a baseball card....
