REA Reveals a 24 Year Mystery
Intersting concept and it certainly makes sense. Additional "food for thought".....has anyone entertained the possibility that BOTH Plank and Wagner had their cards removed from circulation considering that there are NO T201, T202 and T205 Planks???? While there are T204 Ramly Plank's, there are not a significant number of them in circulation and the Ramly was, likewise, issued in 1909. Could Plank have also "pulled the plug" on his Ramly issue as well??? No one can really know for sure but is seems a huge coincidence that Plank is absent on all other MAJOR tobacco issues (other than the 1909 Ramly)! Two other thoughts....
1) I am also wondering if the "removed T206 sheet" applies, has anyone considered the rarity of the other T206 cards on that particular sheet?
2) If Plank, indeed, refused to have his image use to advertise "post" 1909 tobacco cards.....what does that say about the desirability of the T204 Plank?
Best Regards,
Joe T.
