The Perfect Pipe Tobacco
It's worth your while to try Tuxedo.
Especially if a sensitive tongue prevents pipe
smoking.
Tuxedo positively cannot bite not even
if you smoke pipeful after pipeful, as many
as you can crowd into a day or a week.
Tuxedo is made of only the finest, choic
est, selected leaves of perfectly aged Burley
tobacco. It is made by the original "Tuxedo

t lutcss which removes
every trace of bile and
sting and develops all
the wonderful mildness,
fragrance and flavor of
the Burley Leaf in a
way that no other brand
of tobacco has ever suc
cessfully imitated.
