Default Drum tobacco

Yep, they were definitely used to stiffen packs. They were also quite an advertising tool as we all read in that 1909 newspaper article with the boys on the streets.

But how can the Polar Bear cards in the T205/206, Honest LC in the T205/227, the number of Duke Mixture, Scrap Iron and other raw tobacco brands from non-sport and sports issues all be justified then?
