Drum tobacco
Posted By: Hal
The March/April 1997 Vintage & Classic Baseball Collector (#10) has an article entitled "Anatomy Of A Find" on page 40 which discussed a find of five of the Ty Cobb back cards (lots 14-18 in REA's June 1997 auction, the description in the catalog also contains some useful info). The VCBC article included a letter the consignor wrote to Rob Lifson in which he stated that his grandfather "was the one who smoked ... the Ty Cobb Tobacco". This would seem to suggest that the cards were somehow related to the Ty Cobb tobacco tins, and were probably available only in Georgia. What do you guys think?
