I recently completed a run of all pre-ATC merger Duke cigarette packs. These would have competed with A&G, Kinney, Kimball, Goodwin (my favorite), and the others during the card boom of 1887-1890. The Duke's Best brand would be the last brand to join the others before the merger, having been introduced September 1889.


All six are pre-ATC merger examples.
