T216 Kotton - The Meaning of "Never Go Out"

[CW]

Thanks, Pete (and packs with the follow up), for the info on "not in a trust"!

Wow, excellent presentation of the question, Bryan, and thanks to all that provided informative answers!

Looks like my guess was way off, but I've learned something, thanks!

I'm disappointed that Stalag 17 isn't on Netflix. Bummer.

Cheers,
Steve

It is on YouTube, if you really want to check it out. Great movie, in my opinion.

Best regards,

Eric

Thanks for the input guys.

Follow up question: Does anyone here have a Kotton pack or any advertising that they wouldn't mind showing?

Leon had one, you can still find the images on the Heritage site. MINO pack, too. I wanted those so bad! I am glad that Jon C. got them, though, he really should have them.

The Kotton is probably period and the Mino a few years later but probably similar. I too am happy Jon (hi Jon) got them. They needed to be in his collection.

Ed/Leon - Thanks for the kind words. I was happy to add these to the collection.

There are also some scans of later packs (Kotton/Mino/Virginia Extra) on my site, although I don't have scans handy to post right now. I believe the proper page is:

As you will note, the graphics did not change much between the tobacco pouches pictured above (1910s), and the cigarette boxes on my site (1920s).

My interpretation is less homophobic, and more awayophobic, as in someone who has a fear of going outside...Never Go Out. Of course there is an official term for this, but I like making words up.
