Yes, American Litho. researched, designed, and printed virtually all the T-cards from 1909 - 1917 (with the exception of T207's and T216's). The founder of the American Tobacco Co. (J. B. Duke) and the founder of American Litho. (J. Knapp) were very close friends and business associates in New York City. The American Litho. building still stands on South Park Ave and 19th Street. The various Tobacco factory's (#25, 30, 42, 649, etc.) manufactured only tobacco products. They did not have the artists, printers, presses, etc. to have produced BB cards. The cards were shipped by rail to each Factory to be inserted into their cigarette packs. TED Z
