We purchased a Louis Stream 100 cigarettes tin along with 30 other tins in a lot at an auction. This is the only tin that I can not find any information on. All of the graphics are paper. The company appears to be Louis Stream located at 43 east 42nd street. It has a tax stamp on the bottom. I did do some reseach on the tax stamp. It appears to have been issued by the United States between 1879 - 1897.
Can anyone provide any information to us regarding this tin?
