June 15, 2023: Tobacco Cards Only Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/15/2023
Presented is a popular Hughie Jennings card from one of the truly difficult early tobacco issues, the 1914 T213 Coupon Cigarettes Type 2 offering that looks for all the world like T206 cards but is markedly rarer. The fact that the cards were produced and distributed almost exclusively in Louisiana only adds to their cachet. There are two variations of Jennings cards in the issue, including this One Hand Showing example that is found in a PSA 1 (mc) holder. The card has good centering right to left and the bias to the top and miscut at the bottom; the elegant pastel yellow and green background colors are quite effective; the Coupon Cigarettes back is decent, with some toning and staining.
