Arghhhh thanks Steve.

That's a great way BTW to get someone into collecting if he's into Pirates embrace it with cards, FYI there are also some very reasonable UK tobacco sets that have pirates too.

Cheers,

John

P.S. Just make sure it won't turn to Pittsburgh Pirates there's one card that can be kind of $$$$.

Thanks John!

I'll check out the UK pirate tobacco cards. I've also picked up a Pirates brand back with a Chinese warrior on the front for him. That's about the closest I'll come to owning a T215!!

And I've floated the idea of a Honus "Pirate" as a nice "cross collecting" piece for him. Quickly received the Heisman from my wife on that one!!

Ahh yes T215s not a cheap one either.

Tony great Ginter stuff love it!

More Ginter goodness....

a few counter displays.....

When purchased originally I thought this was a Piedmont counter display used for single cigarette sales, but after looking at it closer I believe it to be a counter ashtray.
Note the strike marks on the side a match would have left. Well loved, but cool none the less.
