Cool item, I remember chewing that stuff about 35 years ago. It came in a plug and you would bite off a chunk. That was a hard habit to kick.

Probably what a T214 pack will look similar to, when we find a correctly tagged one.

Geeze ... these old advertising pieces are addicting! Now I have to add another item to my wantlist? Seriously ... there are some really beautiful art pieces within this thread. I hope to one day add a pre-war advertisement display to my collection ... as a companion piece. Thanks for sharing all these!

Thanks Leon! I shouldn't have said "most" - all the EPDG boxes that I could find are paper/cardboard. I just don't know a ton about these so was trying to be careful.

It measures 6" x 4.5" x 2". The colors really look cool in the light too, almost a bit iridescent.

Default A Mecca Cigarette ghost sign

.....a faded 1910 Mecca sign painted on the side of a building on East 70th Street and York Avenue, NYC, likely a with similar consequence as the following sign.


The second sign is a Mecca Cigarette sign also painted in 1910, subsequently painted over with a Cola Cola advertisement. As the top paint wears away over time it reveals the older painting. The reappearance of a painting of an underlying image that has been painted over is called a pentimento.

This Coca-Cola and Mecca pentimento is on a building on the corner of Bleeker and Carmine Streets, NYC.

Great thread. I date this to circa 1910 just after the British American Tobacco Company was established in China. I still periodically gear up to do more research on it. thanks for looking.

neat advertising mirror but missing a few parts. I went back and forth all week about it - contacted the seller - tried to justify the retail - aesthetics - 90.00 shipping - whatever. I have a slightly earlier Duke advertising mirror with globe and wicks (also includes a tobacco insert card) made by the same company although a little "prettier" and complete. Ginter is a core of my accumulation so I was faced with a real predicament. I was fairly sure it wouldn't get a bid and I might have a shot to negotiate. You have some super advertising but didn't think of you. Curses!! ......and congratulations.

Bob, I too was watching that mirror, pretty neat, similar sentiments as Henry but sometimes you just need to bite. Congrats! I suspect Henry would have been all in if it were more complete.

JC, awesome 1892 Schedule, very nice.

I normally don't gravitate outside of 19th century slide and shell cigarette packs but couldn't resist a Detroit chewing tobacco by the name of "WOLVERINE". This wooden storage bin/bucket has a 10lb Series of 1875 tax stamp that was canceled in 1876. The top and bottom have clear stamps for Nevin & Mills Wolverine Tobacco, very complete, everything is present.

Default Agreed

I had a suspicion pieces were missing however given the choices of owning this or nothing, I obviously chose owning it. I guess my other rationalization was that it displays pretty nicely as is and I have no issues displaying it as is.

Joe, that is a killer display piece, definitely worth stretching your collecting area!
