Fascinating!

The opening statement did lead me to go down the T.T.T. rabbit hole however.

No need to editorialize the obvious, but for anybody interested in this strange mans story.

Great thread, very cool finds, love it when the puzzle begins to take shape. Congrats to Jon and all the others who take interest in 20th century packs and T204s.

Interesting info! Picked this up recently...thought it was neat. Tried to do a little research on it...looks like Ted Z posted a similar box years ago, but never saw the verdict on it...card added for scale.

The Red print cartons have been around for decades, probably from a find of some type of unused cartons. They have not been tied to the T204 issue, I believe the cartons are a bit small to hold the known Ramly Mentor Co. package which the cards came in. Other Ramly/Mentor issues were in slightly smaller boxes. I have a box of the cartons somewhere I will get them out see what does and does not fit.
