Default 1916 Green-Joyce Origins

Thanks to SteveD pointing me to a new site for old newspapers, I was finally able to pin down the starting date for the 1916 Green-Joyce cards and confirm that they followed Mendelsohn's marketing plan for department stores to sell these over the course of ten weeks in 20-card series. This is from the April 28, 1916 Columbus Dispatch (p.28):



I now have a starting date for all of the 1916 department store issues except Block & Kuhl. Any help appreciated.

Interesting post, Todd.

Are you going to post the dates that you have for department store issues?

Jackson... not hardly a normal Green Joyce.

Nice Carey card, LL... Max was slight of build and could fly like the wind.

Burgess-Nash... I've not ever seen one of those in person.

Watch out fellow hobbyists...Todd has another source to research! I imagine we are in for a windfall of vintage card info.
