Recently on Antiques Roadshow there was a lady that brought in a smoking jacket made from these items. You may want to check the archives and see if you can find that segment --as I recall they talked about Blackstone and the appaiser gave the history of these tobacco ties. Hope this lead produces some help. |

I saw the same antiques roadshow, and I think they said the ribbons were wrapped around groups of cigars. I think, if I recall correctly, cigars were sold wrapped in bunches, rather than by the box, but I may be wrong |

As far as what I know, these type of ribbons were wrapped and tied around cigars in the late 1800's to the early 1900's. I used to have a couple of pillow case covers made of them and that is how I usually see them. The one on the Roadshow was different in that it was made into a smoking jacket. If it was just a pillow case cover, I doubt it would have been shown on TV. Just my opinion. |
