This is the only price list from Marchant that I have. But I do have the 1976 Sport Americana Baseball Card Checklist, the ancestor of the annual Beckett guides, which has a "Sports Card Catalog" at the back with prices for many prewar sets, presumably written by Dennis Eckes, who partnered with Beckett on those early guides. I posted the prewar pages from that catalog here:

You can see that he had T210s priced at $3.00 apiece. He didn't include T209s, but I wrote them in by hand based on the Marchant price list. The 1975 catalog, which I also have, is laid out slightly differently but has the same content, including T210s valued at $3.00 apiece.
