T206 Question ?

[buymycards]

As I understand it, a large find of T215's were discovered in Louisiana quite a few years ago, so they are considered a Louisiana issue.

Personally, I do not consider the T215's to be a Louisiana issue. They were printed in New Jersey, unlike the T211's, T213's, T214's, and T216's.

I have been putting together a type set of cards that were printed in Louisiana, and this set does not include T215's.

Of the five sets mentioned, the only one that I don't think was produced by ALC in NY would be the T216s, which remind me more of the E90's. I don't really see ALC loaning out the art or transfers to anyone else.

T216s are odd birds indeed. They do have the fronts of e90-1, as well as many other E cards and a few D cards. In fact, they are the only T cards with these fronts. And, that’s why I love all t216 Wagners, because aside from t206, which is impossible, t216 are, I believe, the only tobacco cards with Wagner on them.

Jgrace- sincere thanks for posting and I am glad this thread is helpful. I did not discover this site until after I fell headlong into t206s, and the knowledge on this site about pre 1922 issues (especially T and E cards) is the reason this is a top site I visit. Plus I have made many friends
