Antique ‘Tobacciana’ Flannel American Flags/Textile Tobacco Premium Inserts. This set of four are printed on both sides and would make a statement framed together or by twos.
The history of tobacco textile inserts began between 1905 and 1910 when American tobacco companies began inserting textile items into their cigarette and tobacco products and the fad lasted until the beginning of WWI when the practice was more or less abandoned. At the time, women were encouraged through literature distributed by the tobacco companies, to use them to make things for the home, including quilts, throws, pillows, table covers, purses and even curtains for windows and doors.
