Ted ZanidakisYou are absolutely correct......if this card doesn't prove that T206's were all printed in the same facility,
then nothing will.
James Buchanan Duke (American Tobacco Company) and Joseph Palmer Knapp (who formed the American
Lithographic Co. in NYC) were very close friends and business associates. Therefore, I think we can safely
assume that Am. Litho. not only printed all the T206's......but, most of the BB T-cards, and most of the
Premiums (Flags, Military men, Movie Stars, etc.) that were inserted in tobacco packs from 1900-1916.
The American Lithographic Co. was situated in a 13-story building (built in 1895) at 230 Park Ave South
in NYC. And, this building still stands at this site in NYC with the "American Lithographic Co." name above
its entrance.
