on r.irs an' ' cauced-ap" tobaccos fcr the fellow

So sayc a friend of orrs named Velvet Joe.
And ho just about hits Lie nail on the head.
Velvet is made for men who think there's
no smoke like rc^l tobacco. If you ere that
sort of man, listen:
Velvet was born in old Kentucky, where
more than one good thing comes from. It was
raised as carefully as any other Kentucky
thoroughbred. But the real secrct of Velvet's
friendly qualities is its slow natural ageing in
wooden hogsheads. Ageing in the wood
never hurt anything—and least cf all, tobacco.
And so we say, Velvet is good tobacco-
nothing more or less. It runs second to
none.
The picture of the pipo on the tin needn't
keep you from rolling a jim-dandy cigarette
with Velvet
Not 16 cects
