"The Pinkerton Tobacco Company
Owensboro, Kentucky 42301 U.S.A."
"Pinkerton Tobacco Co. 1981"
"MADE IN U.S.A"
Production code "B207" is embossed, or formed bulging out from the underside.
On plastic keeper lid:
"A QUALITY PRODUCT OF
THE PINKERTON TOBACCO COMPANY"
Condition:
Clear lid has discolored some from age, but is still flexible, with tiny remnants of a long-gone price sticker. Pull-away metal lid is still perfect and factory fresh looking. Paper label is excellent, with minimal blemishes ... but there is a little peeling away at the glue edge. Silver-tone tin base is BULGING to the max with beautiful age expansion, somewhat visible as crease points in pics. Small amount of oxidation scattered throughout the underside. Interior moisture levels are unknown, of course.
Very nice and unique display piece as a whole, or ready to be cracked open and enjoyed!
