Actually, yes... "Heinie" Wagner.

The Sweet Cap pack is actually from Factory No. 25 2nd Dist. VA. but unfortunately has a stamp from Nov. 1902 so it would have never contained a card... until now.

Thanks for all the positive comments. I'm real proud of the display and glad it's appreciated here.

The top portion is too empty but I couldn't think of anything u can add up there. If u add a "Cobb" banner in that area that would affect the vintage feel of the display. (I wish I have better thing to say than this )

How bout a Sweet Cap advertisement from the day?
If you can find one, copy it and format the size to fill the open space.

Jay and all, great suggestions. Something does need to be done about the blank space. If anyone has any period Sweet Cap advertisements or similar ephemera that might work in this display, I'd love to see it. Thanks to everyone for the kind words. The wisdom, guidance and support that I continue to receive from this board is invaluable to me.

Nice, Chris.

I especially like the Sweet Cap cigarette pack in your arrangement of the cards--makes me realize how snugly the card fit in the pack.

What are you going to do when you get your next Cobb?
