 Nice find fleece77.

I thought they were American brands at first glance but a "Yankee Doodle" brand was manufactured by D & J McDonald & Robinson & Sons and quite a few firms did a "Victory" brand incl Elderick Norton, Singlton & Cole and Gallaher. Newbegin of Sunderland did a "Havelock" brand. What are they made of??

 Hi there.

Those are beauties indeed.

That lot are all the Australian made versions. All taken over by the British Australian Tobacco Co and then later by WD Wills.
