T206 factory / factories

Wow, these images are incredible, thanks all for sharing them. Shame that the PB factory no longer exists. Also, I had no idea that certain brands included two cards per pack. I'll keep that in mind the next time I'm shopping for unopened packs on eBay. They can't be that expensive right? : )

Many of them had two cards per pack here's a Hindu ad

If you haven't seen this thread, in Tom's post number 11 there is a link to a pdf file from an ATC journal some of the ledger pages have the packing instructions for inserting different tobacco cards. It's a great read I recommend looking through it if you haven't already.

Hey guy,

Go for it....and find a UZIT cigarette pack. At the tail-end of the T206 production in the Spring of 1911,
Factory #30 was inserting a T206 card with a T80 card in the their UZIT cigarette packs.


T80 cards

Thanks again everyone, will check out that thread. Someone needed to tell the Hindu marketing team that they were burying the lede by mentioning the tobacco before the southern leaguer cards.
