My theory regarding the timeline when the 350/460 subjects were printed with EPDG backs coincides with the Sovereign "apple green" print run (shown here is my simulated Sovereign sheet)....circa Spring - Summer 1910. I base this on the following evidence...... Joe Doyle retires from Major League BB June 25, 1910 Simon Nicholls retires from Major League BB April 19, 1910 Red Kleinow traded to Boston May 26, 1910 Frank Smith traded to Boston Aug 11, 1910 [F. Smith(Chicago & Boston) is an EPDG No-Print] I have removed Red Kleinow (Boston) from my list. Therefore, the grand total (to date) of EPDG = 284 subjects. TED Z .

SWEET CAPORAL 350-460, Factory #42 overprint cards
* * * * * * * * * * * * T206 Reference, Theory's, Surveys, etc. * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
350/460 series subjects Continuing from Post # 181 ...... In anticipation of the impending divestiture of the American Tobacco Co. (ATC) in 1911, American Lithographic modified their SWEET CAPORAL 350-460, Factory #30 cards (initial press run) by stamping them with Factory #42 overprints. This was done since the SWEET CAP cigarettes production was being transferred to the Durham, NC plant of Liggett & Myers. Factory #42 Durham, NC Anyhow, after ATC's divesture was resolved by the Federal Courts (circa..Summer 1911), and the "smoke had finally cleared", ATC had retained SWEET CAPORAL production. Therefore, all this "overprinting" of 109 -T206 subjects was really unnecessary. Listed below are the 109 subjects that were overprinted. Check-out the Federal Court's decree break-down (circa 1911)...... American Tobacco Company divestiture Liggett & Myers was given about 28 % of the cigarette market: Piedmont Fatima American Beauty Home Run Imperiales Coupon King Bee Fatima....only 15 Turkish blends and the cheap straight domestic brands. P. Lorillard received 15 % of the nation's business: Helmar Egyptian Deities Turkish Trophies Murad Mogul and all straight Turkish brands American Tobacco retained 37 % of the market: Sweet Caporal Hassan Mecca Pall Mall....its expensive all-Turkish brand, named for a fashionable London street in the 18th century where "pall-mall" (a precursor to croquet) was played. R. J. Reynolds received no cigarette line but was awarded 20 % of the plug trade.
