Default Unopened 1909 Sweet Caporal Pack

Posted By: peter chao

Bill,

Such an unopened cigarette package doesn't exist. Before I even think of bidding, the seller would have to document the chain of custody. By this I mean, there needs to be somebody who says my father told me that he bought this package of smokes when he was 16. His mom told him he was too young to smoke so he hid the package in the attic for another day. Then when he passed away, the smokes were given to his nephew and has stayed in the family ever since.

In the absence of this documentation of chain of custody, I wouldn't be interested.

Peter
