The Hindu ads came shortly after (about a month) the others started and ran during the same timeframe.

Also in the ads some of the names are at the top!

The Old Mills started around the same time as the Hindu's

It appears the exact release date of Old Mill T206 cards is August 1, 1909; at least, this would be the case for Print Group 1 subjects.

I imagine this was previously known; however, it's new info to me. Do we have specific release dates for any other cards?
