T206 Paper Stock

[G1911]

All the ATC sets seem to use a unified stock.

Moreso American Litho.

T212s have slightly different stock. The lacquer on the front doesn't crack as easily, it more readily wrinkles. If I knew where T207s and T210s were printed, I'd say something about the alligator-ing on the front.

I’ll change it to “the majority of ATC sets, supposed to or actually printed by American Lithography and Brett Lithography” if you prefer. Though no ATC set I can think of really has a stock variant. T212’s are all on the same stock. T210’s are all on the same stock. It’s not like Topps where they switched stock types mid print run with frequency. ATC sets were done on one single stock type.

No need to make me happy, but I'm cool with looking at all the old boxing stuff, though. Keep 'em coming. (And my experience on the lack of within-set variation matches yours.)
