1900's UNOPENED Sweet Caporal Pack QUESTION

[Archive]

Posted By: Ryan

Someone offered me an unopened pack of Sweet Caporal Cigaretts. Pic Below:



Everything about the pack tells me it's sealed and it still has its original wax wrapping. The problem is I wanted it for a display of T206 cards and the dates & factory dont coeincide with T206 cards. Can anyone tell me if there's something else in this and that I should buy it anyway.

Here's what I know about it:

Tax stamp has printed in red ink across it:
The A.C. Co.,
Factory 593
Dist. of Maryland
June 1922

This is exactly like the other SC Packs I have, but the date is too late for T206 cards (I think)

Any help would be appreicated. Or any suggestions on keeping it or finding someone else who wants it.

Thanks

There are no cards or simlar inserts in there. You should buy it only if you want to own a 1922 Sweet Caporal Pack.

Perhaps of interest, I did once pull a non-sport 'card' from an old pack-- a little cardboard puzzle. Out of the slide box came little puzzle pieces. I can't remember what brand of cigarettes it was, but don't beleive it was a T206 brand.
