Lot # 408: 1910 T213 Coupon Cigarettes (Type 1) Gabby Street SGC VG 3

Graded VG 3 by SGC. Attractive mid-grade T213 (Type 1) Coupon Cigarette card of Gabby Street (Washington Senators) from this elusive and extremely rare tobacco set. T213 Coupon Cigarettes are among the most unusual, rarest, and overlooked of all tobacco-card issues. Very similar in design and borrowing the same images as the T206 set, the T213 (Type 1) set was issued exclusively in the Louisiana region. A strong case can be made that T213 (Type 1) cards are a rare type of T206. At a glance, T213-1s look like T206s, but when held in hand, it is apparent that they are printed on extremely thin stock. T213-1s also have a unique advertising design on their reverses. Approximately 68 different T213-1s are known. This example displays bright colors, a crisp image, honest corner wear, and impressive centering. T213 (Type 1) Coupons are far rarer than their T206 counterparts, and this is a very attractive example.
