The one shown in the advertisement I suggest is prior to 1914 and after 1905 with Patterson's on the bottom and American tobacco company successor (older seated man image as well - slight differences in image due to the paper one is a rendering). The one with only ATC on the bottom would be after 1914. Andrew there are more variations in the pocket tins than two and more configurations of the containers. Interesting to note they went back to the verbiage about pipe and cigarette. I have to look at a couple of my books and then I'm done. Ted, sorry that I think your tin is a newer example but it still is neat for a display. The green and gold stand out when viewing in person. This thread got me looking around and nothing to do with me but there's a great item on feeBay that's from a long time not overly fantastic seller that's not exactly correctly listed. Ooooops. Hope this doesn't constitute outing.

Hey Henry
Don't be sorry....whether this Tin's circa is 1910-15, or its circa is 1920-30 is irrelevant to me. As a former pipe smoker, I was just curious when this pipe tobacco brand
was popular ?
Hope to see you at the National.
