*~I got them last week and just got around to scanning some of them this evening so scroll down the page and check it out!

This is my new (to me) 1920's Tobacco advertising cover lot with contents included and other misc. documents.

These are the sellers images but I can't wait to get and scan some of this stuff better. It'll be fun to sort through.

Wow ILS, what a collection! You've been a busy boy. These, and your other postings of last nights hauls, are quite impressive. These almost make smoking cool (almost).
Mr. Shultz had quite a collection. I wonder if he was in the smoking biz or just an addict?
Nice, very nice!

Question for you cover connoisseurs- When was the first window envelopes used? Anyone know? I know it was sometime in the late 1800's I believe right?

I didn't even know that was actually what they were called! and 1902 patent date? I thought they was around earlier than that? Thank you Revenuecollector for the wiki link.

Awesome Jeff! Obviously Mr. Schultz was a tobacconist. Nobody could inhale that much leaf.

Yep He sure was. I haven't researched him or his place of business yet though.
