I doubt 12 count packs contained T206 cards. Even if the pack had a card in it, it would most likely be a Bird Series, Fish Series, or Military Series tobacco card instead of a T206. |

Just to add a little bit to this post, I just sold this exact same style pack, same tax stamp etc which was absolutely unopened on my website for $200.00. |

I also agree with Jon on the Drum pouch. If you're stupid enough to buy this, then you should smoke the tobacco. |

If the folks grading must be provided critical information by the owner of the pack in order to do the grading accurately, I would think that they ought not be doing the grading. |

No - mine was missing the wax paper but should have been there (and was originally). That being said, there was an in depth write-up about one of these packs in REA and Rob added a lengthy addendum after some members from this board brought forth evidence as to the dating of these packs. 12-count cigarette packs were not allowed by law until 1917. This fact is not only in the tax codes but also confirmed by Springer's tax stamp guide. So, that means there are three possible theories to how cards got into Piedmont 12-count packs: |

Also, to add to Barry's post and Richard post above, I do agree that the grading of these packs is a huge problem but I can understand why Richard would want to protect his packs and thereby provide accurate information and sources to back up his info. |

I have my boxes graded for one reason only. To protect them from the elements. The grading means nothing to me. |
