Hi Ted! I doubt it. I don't know for a fact, but I bet they came in the slide shell packs, just like Old Judges and Gypsy Queens.

Thanks, Jay
Correct if I'm wrong, but I think there are 13 subjects in the LONE JACK set. So, here is the BIG question....does anyone have a complete set of these rare cards ? TED Z . |

That is correct. The Lone Jack set mirrors the Browns Champ Old Judge subset which has thirteen cards. As to whether there exists a complete Lone Jack set, I've heard one is out there but I have not seen it nor do I know who might have it.

Believe 1883. I should qualify that the pack is not mine.

Hello Jon, I echo Jay's question and then some. Is that a full pack, just outer shell, an image you happened across, etc.? Is there any mention of ATC on the pack? Tax stamp?, overprint? Thanks for sharing.
Jay, some amazing Buchner pieces, did they all come together or did you piece them together one by one. Amazing either way.

I believe Jim Shaw shared the photo with me years ago. I can't recall where the pack came from, but I believe it was complete, albeit empty. I also have a lower quality scan of a flattened pack - no idea where I got this scan, but unfortunately it doesn't yield any additional info.

While we're on the topic of early cigarette packs, below are the only 2 known Kalamazoo Bats packages that I'm aware of. Both are identical in size and would fit a card, so my best guess is that these were used for distribution. Note some of the subtle differences in the font used for "The Best Cigar in the World".
