T206 Coupon type 1 scarcity level?

[drdduet]

One way to consider this is to develop criteria that would do the classifying for us....

Major Criteria could include--
Front design
Front subjects/pose
Series issue
Back design
Card dimensions
Producer/Printer
Year issue
Etc.

Minor Criteria
card stock
font color
font type
etc.

And after a summit of all type pre-war guys and gals criteria could be decided upon and reclassifications may be done incorporating the facts.

For me, it's hard to ignore the look of the T213-1, the "producer", the style, the subjects, and most importantly the 68--350 series of T206. It's not just the appearance, most importantly it's the subject inclusion.

Furthermore I do like the idea of breaking up T206 into T206-1 (the first 150 subjects), T206-2 (350 Subjects), T206-3 etc, as they were all issued at different times reflecting team changes, etc. The whole idea of reclassification is to get it right and reflect more accurately all the facets of an issue.

I humbly believe the more correct the classification the more to be gained in this issue as a reference to history. Sophisticated tobacco card historians such as Ted Z., Barry A., Scott R., etc, have brought to light the detailed history of the monster. I think there is a lot to be gained by being precise and calling things by their real names.
