I guess everyone may be entitled to his or her own opinion, but the way I read it, there is a high likelihood of SOME card being inside, when actually, that probability is pretty low.

My statement was not "my opinion" Jon. It's the industry standard and has been for decades. Circa 1900s = 1900-1909. circa 1950s = 1950-1959. etc.
Also, I was not addressing their description, as that is a whole different issue. Their dating of the pack is correct and should not be bundled with the description in order to claim they are misleading.
BTW... I want to make it clear that I know absolutely nothing about cigarette packs from that or any era. I simply took your original post at face value and commented accordingly.
