Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Canada Canadian tobacco

Pipe, cigars, cigarettes, even chewing.
Not recommending it, just wondering what the grandfathers, uncles, and such used.
I'm thinking some of the old tins are still holding nuts, and bolts.
Any brands come to mind?

It must be infused with gold now days. It's about three times the price of tobacco in the US.

I still have some old vogue and export tin cans full of nuts and stuff. I am trying my best to give it up though! Cheers

Dad used to buy the tins of Export and he rolled thousands of cigs with a roll master. Made a long cigarette that you could cut into 4 kings or 5 regulars. Later he got one of those crank up things that rolled one at a time using tubes.

Dad smoked 60 rollies a day every day unless he was driving a long ways, and then it was more. Cancer didn't get him, but his heart gave out.

How many even know what a "flat 50" is today?

A can of "Cope" that was 90 grams sold for 45 cents in 1990. Nowadays it's $27 for 34 grams. At least the gov't wont go broke!!

my dad always rolled Vogue..

Players, Export-A. I always thought the extra long cut rolling tobacco the guide at Jan Lake used was pretty cool. It wasn't dust like Bull Durham. He could pull out a pinch and roll it in a paper with one hand while running the outboard tiller. His name was Roderick Thomas and that was about a half century ago. GREAT TIMES!

I've got a sportsman flat fifty can, damn near wore the paint off it showing people that cigarettes use come in a fifty pack.
I haven't seen Old Spud tobacco for a long time,
I had a collection of the flies that were on sportsman cig pack.
