If everything matches, I would open because it might contain 5 cards!

Odds of staining due to the loose leaf tobacco would be very high...

Default Over-Stamp?
Please post a clear, close-up scan/photo of the blue tax stamp. Many of these Polar Bear pouches with the proper 1910 tax stamp, unfortunately have an over-stamp, often in red type, dating the manufacture of the pouch/pack to 1914. Mine does--hope yours doesn't!

I will check the red date on the Polar Tobacco package and report that year, here are a couple of more pictures. In addition I had valuable input from Jon Canfield from T206.com as well on this. Curious what card is in the tobacco pouch from 1914 ?

Rich, Jon & Gentleman...

With the Possibility of Any Pack having 5 Cards in it,
Wouldn't Weighing the Pack be Wise!?

Might You Guyz Know What a Pack
Of Smoke's From 1909, 1910 Weigh wit 1 Card in it?

Wit No Cards...?
Wit 2 or More Cards in it?

Moisture content at this stage will cause packs with similar contents to vary in weight, a pack with 1 card might weigh the same as a pack with more cards depending on how tightly the package is sealed and where it was stored.
