I will break with "on topic" and go to this Billiken cigar wrapper. I was glad to see David's display piece (fantastic, btw) as it somewhat verified this is the correct design of the pack, as the cards would have come in...(my apologies if I showed this before).....regards

Leon,

What is David's display piece?

Leon,

David's display piece is actually a very cool poster created around 10 years ago. Liberties were taken regarding the accuracy of the advertising, but I do believe your pack is probably right.

I had no idea about the poster being so recent. As much as I like to validate things I also like to know when they are more recent items too. Thanks for your input....

Leon: Never occurred to me that it wasn't self-evident that my Billikens poster is a modern item. Difficult to see but Mark Rucker Transcental Graphics copyright 2000 is indicated at the bottom. Apologies for not being clear on that.

David- thanks for the explanation. Just curious why it should have been self evident this wasn't original? (especially when it seems my wrapper is authentic and period). Maybe I missed something besides the print that can't be read in the scan? It's a neat poster regardless, and I guess this leads to another question. Are the cards real? (I assume not)
