The 1910 COUPON was strictly an ATC brand.

I will search for a pix of the " COUPON " Cigarettes carton.

Ted - That makes some sense. I will take this to email with you, so this thread doesn't get too sidetracked... Is Liggett & Myers on the reverse of any other brands besides 1914 Victory tobacco cards ?

[tedzan]

The break-up of the American Tobacco Co. (May 1911) resulted in the re-assignment of the following brands............


Liggett & Myers was given these cigarette brands:

Piedmont
Fatima
American Beauty
Home Run
Imperiales
Coupon
King Bee
Fatima


P. Lorillard was given these cigarette brands:

Helmar
Egyptian Deities
Turkish Trophies
Murad
Mogul
and,
all straight Turkish brands


American Tobacco Co. retained these cigarette brands:

Pall Mall (its expensive all-Turkish brand, named for a fashionable London street)
Sweet Caporal
Hassan
Mecca

You need to write a book! Not joking a bit. Your knowledge of the t206 set is amazing.

I really appreciate the compliment.

I think I have shared most of my T206 knowledge with everyone on this forum since April 2005.

Should I go back 10 years and review all my posts regarding T206's in order to compile a book......perhaps so.

However, I enjoy the free association of thought that we all enjoy on Net54 every day; and, I find that more meaningful.


Take care,

.........30 years ago, I acquired my first T206 DRUM card from Barry Sloate.....this Danny Moeller card.

Then, 7 years ago I helped Barry Arnold with his T206 backs sub-set when I sent him this unique T206.

I don't know of another Moeller/DRUM card. Checking out the pop reports of PSA and SGC, you will find
only this one (SGC A).

If anyone on this forum knows of another one, please chime in.
