for what it is worth...which is nothing...
I would argue there was no intended purpose for the "blankets" other than to help sell tobacco products and in particularly sell to younger demographics. Im sure a few used them as ink blotters as I think blotters were in high demand especially in school settings (at least reading some news articles I saw from 1914). I saw no mention of "ink" or "blotter" for the Flag "Blankets" in 1914 ads or articles. Seems to me the B18s would be made for the same reasons and logically it would be simply as a collectible/incentive in order to boost sales. I will add I love the Shoeless Notes and see nothing wrong with their twist/take playing off John Thorn's insight. Keep up the good work over there guys if yall are reading this.
