ND we have selected the word "finest" with most deliberate care to
aptly describe this plant of the Greatest Tobacco Company the world
has ever seen.
Webster's Dictionary defines "finest" as meaning clever, marked excel
lence or superiority, worthy of admiration and of great merit. That is why we say the
STRAIGHTS factory is FINEST in the calibre of its executive management; FINEST in the soundness of its
structure; FINEST in sanitary principles and FINEST in the quality of its products.
Visitors come to the STRAIGHTS factory skeptical. They go away wildly enthusiastic
realizing the sublime in cigarette manufacturing is reached in this factory. We issue cardsv
of invitation to this plant; your name and address on a postal to 337-347 West 27th Street, New York City, will
bring you one. Come and tee for yourself the factory which won lavish praise from M'Cann of the New York
Globe, America's foremost crusader for cleanliness in factories.
Uniformed guides will intelligently describe to you each process of manufacturing. With no sense of false
pride do we extend a cordial invitation to our competitors in the cigarette business to visit this plant It has no
secrets, even to them, and the welfare of the American people demands that other makers of cigarettes should see
The American Tobacco Company's method of making cigarettes.
