Phenomenal Allen & Ginter cloth feeling advertising sheet. Seems like some type of rag type paper advertising for "Old Rip" and "Richmond Gem" from Allen & Ginter picturing the Old Planter graphic right in the center and other full body graphics of him in various poses. The tagline at the bottom reads "They have an aroma and natural fragrance that is unsurpassed".
This piece obviously has come condition issues--most notably on the left side and has some tape on the back to help support it. This is an extremely fragile piece and is one of the earliest Allen & Ginter advertising we have seen.
