"Here is a scan of the 12 subjects that were the start of the T206 press runs in the Spring/Summer of 1909. These cards were initially printed with the PIEDMONT and SWEET
CAPORAL brands. The Wagner card was discontinued due to his claim "of not endorsing cigarette smoking". Connie Mack's biography tells us that Connie Mack and Eddie Plank were strongly "anti-tobacco" and did not want their picture associated with tobacco cards." Really Ted? If Wagner was in the first run where is the 150 Sovereign or Hindu Wagner Ted? A lot of the first series cards are found with other backs as well Hindu, Piedmont, Sovereign, Sweet Cap Wagner cant be found with anything other than handcut Piedmont same goes for Plank. So I fail to see how Wagner & Plank were in the first runs of T206 if so I'd be looking for a Hindu and Sovereign Plank & Wagner. Unless you are saying that Hindu and Sovereign were printed way later? BTW love to see your new Magie card when you can. John Last edited by wonkaticket; 01-17-2012 at 12:26 PM. |
