Default The "Exclusive 12" of the T205 set

1911 was a very ambitious year for American Lithographic in terms of Tobacco premiums. For starters they finished off the T206 set. Then started their Gold-Boarded sets.
These T80 Military Men were first. Here are some of my nicer T80's. I wish the T205 cards looked as pretty as these guys.

Followed by the T42 Birds set and of course the T205's. Furthermore, the T201 cards, the T77 Lighthouse series, etc., etc. Can anyone here name some more 1911 sets ?


















Hey guys....imagine opening a UZIT or LENOX cigarette pack in the Spring of 1911 and finding a T206 card and a T80 card.
