      Ah, Jail Bird cigarettes as these relics of the past are also known as. But on the level these cigarettes were a real treat for those only able to scrounge up a few cents in change. And enjoy a cheap smoke with a smile! Love it!

      Hi Tom
      I have never heard of that term. My dad could only Bull Durham. I think I have a couple of bags some where that I will place on the site.
      Thanks for the note.
      Remember when You would go to the store an ask "Do you have Prince Albert in a can" If the answer Was Yes. You would say "Well let him out!!!" Depression or no Those were interesting days.
      OFF TOPIC: By the way, Did you know that
      FDR proposed a 100% income tax on everyone making more than $25,000 a year. Congress would not go along with that.
