The box is full and sealed as far as I can tell. (sorry, if I didn't mentioned it in the original post) I didn't really inspect closely whether it has been tampered or not but appear to be factory sealed.

I have already left town and will go back there in two wks, hopefully the carton is still there next time I visit that town again.

If the carton is full and factory sealed, how much do they worth? If it worths a lot of money, might be i should go back next Monday. LOL

The Sweet Caporal brand used the Ask Dad advertising campaign for a few years, from around WW1 into the 1920’s. Cartons held 200 cigarettes and still do to this day. If it is 10 packs, that means there are 20 count soft packs inside. The correct carton from the baseball era would say 20 packs. There is one on ebay right now with a pack that was just listed the other day.

I'd value it at about $100. Like the others said, it is a little after T206, but still a great display piece.
