There is very little information found in old newspapers about the Coupon cigarettes I found this cigarette sales ad in an Austin Texas newspaper that has Coupon cigarettes in it.

Note that the Indian artwork on my pack matches the artwork on the packs in the carton. The art work on the LA 3 packs is slightly different from the Fact 42 pack.
