Vintage "FOUR SQUARE original MATURED VIRGINIA"

"Finest Virginia and other choice tobacco in broken flake form"

On lid side edge:
"2 OZS. NET WEIGHT WHEN PACKED"
and
"MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN".

Embossed on the can bottom:
"2 OZ NET
TOBACCO"

Tiny distributor's decal on bottom:
"Sole Importers for U.S.A.
James B. Russell Inc.
50 West 36th Street
New York 19
Made in England"

Mid 1960s or earlier, based on the 2-digit postal code. This is the real deal - original. Silver painted lid AND base can.

There is movement inside, but the lid is tight. Total weight with tin is 121.4 grams. This is VERY close to another one here (122.0 gm), so believed to still be factory sealed. Moisture level is unknown, of course.

Minor stock wear on the painted lid and base, with a few small dents here and there. Tiny distributor's decal is separating from the adhesive, over 50% I'd say, but it's still hanging onto the bottom of the tin.
