Default rarest tobacco card?

I totally agree with you about cards issued in Series.

My Grandson, Ron, when he was 9 years old was fascinated with my 1952 Topps set.
So, I acquired a 1952 Topps reprint set for him. He grew up in Maine and I would
send him these cards in series form as I recall collecting them as a kid. To start with
cards #1 - 80, and then #81 - 130, etc., etc....and finally, the Hi#s (#311 - 407) in
the Fall of that year.

This way he had an appreciation for how we acquired them back in 1952.

And let me tell you, he kept wondering when he was going to get the Mantle.
