Default Looking for information about e98 "Old Put" cards

Posted By: barrysloate

As Leon alluded it is likely the only occurrence where a card issued to sell a candy product was overstamped with an ad for a tobacco product. Since it's realistic that a well stocked store might sell both candy and tobacco, maybe the stamp was relegated to a single merchant in a large emporium at a particular location. How many stores could simultaneously come up with the idea of overprinting a candy card with a cigar ad?
