Jon CanfieldThese are actually the exact packs style-wise that the T-205's came out of. However, these ones are the wrong year. All of these packs have been overprinted with 1914. In response to a couple of the posts above. HLC did package T-205's in these tobacco packs, not slide and shell's. The packs pictured have no cellophane - maybe the picture from eBay is misleading. Finally, the HLC packs that contained the T-205's did have a foil lining. If anyone is intersted, I have a HLC pack with a 1911 overprint - the exact from the T-205 issue. I tried to post the picture here but Network54 never seems to let me post. I even shrunk it down to under 10kb's so go figure! Needless to say, in size, style, and appearance, my 1911 and these 1914's are identical. However, none of these packs will contain a T-205...
