Re: Variation of the ANONA c&s
In Response To: Re: Variation of the ANONA c&s ()

Schmidt & Co was famous for making cigar labels/ Here is one they made in 1904 (along with what they charged)

The poker chips were made as advertising for M. Hyman Cigars. I assume Hyman had the poker chips made using the litho

Interesting point. I have 2 different lithos. A crude pic of Anona and a much better quality one. The date on the Scmidt litho is 1908. However, Hyman registered "Anona" in 1904. My best guess ---- Hyman originally used the crude litho of Anona prior to 1908. The company then reordered with the much better 1908 litho. Since the crude litho Anonas are much rarer (only 2 known), it stands to reason that Hyman destroyed the earlier version when the new order arrived.

A lot of assumptions
