Announcing the Creation of a Five Cent Size in Our “White Stag" Cigar Confection Mr. Smoker, we have thrown away our pencils and are pitching in to make you a REAL cigar with “White Stag” Quality to sell for five cents. A reduction in price of a Quality Smoke like our White Stag brand would not be warranted by present conditions in the leaf tobacco market, hut by methods of greater factory efficiency we are able to produce a slightly smaller 5-cent size with White Stag quality intact We feel that under existing conditions a good five cent cigar will fill a long felt want and we are making this move as our contribution to the general march in the direction of more normal trade conditions. A lot of men today simply say “Give me a nickel cigar” and they get a cigar that sells for five cents but you that read this add will say “Gimme a White Stag five cent size” and get a real pre-war nickel smoke. Try them today and get all your money’s worth. 7 f k ~ For sale by all dealers. THE WHITE STAG CIGAR COMPANY ■■■ 11 ——
