Book “The Story of Lucky Strike” by Roy C. Flannagan. 1939 New York World's Fair Edition. 7 3/4” x 5 1/8” Hardcover, 94 pages with photos and text. Here is a 1939 take on a Lucky Strike, and how it was produced from planting a tobacco seed, to harvest, and through production. Interesting, how cigarettes were much more part of our American culture in the years leading to WW2. What a great closing; “With the smoke of a Lucky Strike curling upward, a man can dream of Pocahontas….-and then of countless man whose art and labor improved the leaf until it became the greatest solace in a troubled world.” Wow! Pardon me while I go outside for a smoke! Price: $25.00 (ref 10A-829)
