Duke's Cigarettes

[Miniature Book] History of General Braxton Bragg

New York: Knapp & Company | Duke's Cigarettes, 1888. Original Wrappers. Very Good+ binding. Item #9665

2.875" x 1.5." 15, [1] pp., illus., facsim. First edition. As issued, stapled into chromolithographic wrappers. A fresh copy; contents clean.

Fairly uncommon tobacco booklet. While Duke's issued several different series, this series of Civil War generals was complete in 50 booklets. Given how many there were, individual histories like this are not at all common. Inside the front cover is a facsimile signature of Bragg. Neat piece of collectibles history. Duke's Cigarettes would merge with several others to form American Tobacco Company in 1890, shortly after these booklets were issued.
