Hey, my suggested thread was ignored, so leave me out of this.

Beautiful proof, by the way.

So, what is thread about....if it isn't what you suggested ? ?

I changed the "benchmark" to the Joe Doyle Nat'l card, since this card is an order of magnitude less available than the Wagner card.
Just to make things more interesting.

I acquired this BROAD LEAF Hal Chase many years ago in a trade with a great ole buddy of mine from North Carolina. Little did I know at that time that it was unique.
Well, this past year a 2nd BROAD LEAF Hal Chase has been discovered.

I forgot to note in the previous post that the 1910 COUPON blue portrait Chase is another low pop card.
I cannot say for sure how many of these T213's are in circulation; but, only 4 blue Chase's are graded.

Ted, only you would post a Type-1 Coupon in a thread for T206s.

What I like to call the "Wiltse Devil on my Shoulder"

Certainly one-of-a-kind, AND actually production, not scrap.

It may surprise you, but there are a fair number of guys on this forum that agree with me.

I have yet to hear any logical arguments that disproves my case for these 1910 " COUPON " cards being a part of the T206 family.

The old bromide....."because Burdick says so".....just aint good enough.

Sean.....if it quacks like a duck, and waddles like a duck, then it's a T206

Ted, it doesn't surprise me, because we've had this discussion many times.

My vote is not a T206 based on the different card stock. Maybe we should have a poll: T213 type-1 should or shouldn't be in the T206 set?
Same with the T215 type-1.

If that is the only reason you have, then please consider this:


American Litho. printed these cards in the Spring/Summer of 1910 on thinner stock because they were not intended to serve as "stiffeners" in cigarette
packs (as the other T206's did). NO standard cigarette pack labelled "COUPON" Cigarettes has been found. I don't expect that one will ever be found.

1910 COUPON cigarettes were marketed in cartons (11" x 3" x 2") labelled "COUPON" Cigarettes that contained 100's of this new brand of cigarettes.

The 1910 COUPON cards were included with (or inside) the carton. A few of these cartons have been found....I have seen one of them.


P.S.
A poll would be meaningless, since there would be many uninformed in this subject voting in it.
