Were the T210's actually a 1910 issue or were they issued in 1911?

Thank you. You proved my point! I'm going to go watch some football. I'll probably check in later tonight to see if there is even one thing that shows T210 was not discontinued by the end of 1910, and that nothing more than remaining inventory was being sold in 1911. Which by the way, I agree that remaining inventory was still being sold in 1911. I'll stay on the hunt too and dig deeper into 1911 in order to find anything!

I'm not sure what you mean trey? The 5/6/1910 date is for the packing of the coupon pasted in the journal for people to order the Cabinet pictures and on 5-27-10 they started packing coupons for the boxers that's why they are so scarce they had to be ordered through the mail.

The Old Mill packs were distributed with a card(s) and the coupon for the T206's. The top part was torn off for the cards. It's a shame that someone destroyed part of the journal for the cards.

The old Mill page would have been like this Lenox page.

I stand potentially corrected! Very interesting thread. I hope we can attain confirmation either way. If they aren't 1910 issues I'll sell the whole set out of anger lol.

Me too Jason. It doesn't matter to me either way I only brought it up because the newspaper clips indicate that the 1910 distribution date could be incorrect. I think sometimes there's to much emphasis put on what teams the players are depicted on. It isn't uncommon to see players depicted on teams that they played on in the previous year back then.

It doesn't matter to me either, but please point out where the newspaper clips indicate a 1911 release date. I have not gone back to review the entire thread but I seem to recall that you based your theory on the verb tense of one word in one clipping--the use of "appears" instead of "appeared". Mickey Mantle both appears and appeared in the 1961 Topps set, but the cards were released in the past regardless of my choice of verbiage on that now.

I didn't say it was proof Todd but what's the proof that they were released in 1910? The S74's, T51's, T42's, T6's, T206's, T3's, T220's, T218's, and even the H801-7's plus others are all mentioned the the ATC journal but the T210's aren't.
