If you do NOT see the stylistic similarity of the design of these 5 backs indicating that they were printed during the Summer 1910 timeline, then you have no appreciation for the operation at American Lithographic's art department. These designs were simultaneously printed in the Spring/Summer of 1910. The same was true with another stylistic back design during the 350-only Series (CAROLINA BRIGHTS). Furthermore, This information is derived from an ATC journal regarding the May 1911 DIVESTURE ACT, which broke up American Tobacco Company's monopoly. Liggett & Myers was given about 28 per cent of the cigarette market: Piedmont Fatima American Beauty Home Run Imperiales COUPON King Bee Fatima P. Lorillard received 15 per cent of the nation's business: Helmar Egyptian Deities Turkish Trophies Murad Mogul and all straight Turkish brands American Tobacco retained 37 per cent of the market: Pall Mall Sweet Caporal Hassan Mecca Note that the COUPON brand is assigned to L & M.....proving to us that it was in the marketplace during 1910. Newspaper clippings (circa 1909) exist which inform us this new ATC brand was being introduced. THAT'S ALL FOLKS, CASE IS CLOSED ! TED Z T206 Reference . |
