Printing T206's was a business, and a rather big one at that based on the tens of millions of cards that circulated. An operation that size doesn't employ one artist to draw 500+ different designs. It's likely there was a whole crew, with several head artists and perhaps a dozen or more staff artists. I'm sure there were a few thousand illustrations submitted within only a percentage of them accepted. This was a pretty big operation.
