From the research I have undertaken regarding T209s and T210s, American Lithographic Corporation (ALC) and American Tobacco Company (ATC) were monopolies. Buck Duke of ATC was a close friend of Joseph Palmer Knapp whose family created ALC in 1892. ALC was a conglomerate that absorbed a number of lithographic printers, like George S. Harris, Heppenheimer's & Sons, etc. As a reult of their "absorption," ALC created a monopoly of lithographic printing so that all T206s cards, as well as many other litho printed images, were produced by them. It was a sweet deal during the tobacco card era for Duke & Knapp, but with the court ordered dissolution of ATC, ALC embarked on a period of economic challenges.
Cheers, Mike
