    Extremely Scarce Dogs Head Cigarette Pack w/ 1889 Overprint

    One of the most difficult packs to find in any condition, offered here is a Dogs Head cigarette pack complete with inner slide. In addition this pack has an 1889 overprint on the tax stamp, dating it to the N173 time frame. Overall condition is good with some tears as can be seen below. Also of note is that the top flap of the inner slide is missing.

    Price: $450.00




    T206-era American Beauty Unopened Cigarette Pack

    Without question, a cornerstone pack for any collection. By my estimation, there are less than 20 American Beauty packs known to exist. In fact, until a small find in Gettsyburg, PA a few years back, there were only 2 or 3 known. This pack is in MINT condition, completely unopened, and comes with a full tax stamp on back. The overprinting dates this pack to the 1905-1907 time frame. Doubtfull you will see another of these any time soon!

    Price: $420.00




    1909 Piedmont Cigarette Pack w/1911 Overprint and Original Cigarettes!

    Beautiful 1909 Piedmont cigarette slide & shell box with a 1911 overprint on back. Dates to the T206 issues. Even better is that this pack contains some of the original cigarettes. A great addition to your collection. Overall, the packages is in very good condition with no major flaws, split ends, etc.

    Price: $180.00




    1910 Drum Tobacco Pouch - Sister-Product to Drum Cigarettes (T-205 and T-206 Distribution)

    I recently came across a small find of original Drum Tobacco pouches. All of the pouches are empty and vary in condition. However, the best part of this grouping is every single pouch dates to 1910 (original tax stamps are in tact for the most part). The Drum tobacco pouches did not contain the T-205 and T-206 baseball cards. They were made by the ATC as a sister product to Drum cigarette packs (which did contain the cards). Currently, there are no known Drum cigarette packs from the time period and only one Drum cigarette pack overall known to exist. The graphics from the Drum tobacco pouch are most likely identical to that of the cigarette pack. Most Drum pouches that you see today date to the 1920s. Again, these date to 1910 which puts them squarely in the T-206 era. Please email me for detailed scans of the Drum pouches I still have available for sale. Prices vary depending on condition but most pouches are in the $10.00 - $70.00 price range.

    Price: Varies.
