The stylistic design of the CAROLINA BRIGHTS (CB) backs is one of the best of all the T-brands. American Litho printed these backs during their 350-only series press runs.
My research indicates that 132 subjects were printed with the CB backs.

Our Net54 resident expert on the CB's is Brian Weisner....perhaps he may chime in here and share with us his knowledge.

The CAROLINA BRIGHTS cigarettes were manufactured in Wilson, NC....click on this link for a picture of the factory.... CAROLINA BRIGHTS factory


Here are my CAROLINA BRIGHTS cards (I traded Clymer to Brian Weisner some years ago). How about posting some of your CB's here ?
