Attractive grouping of "common" S74 Silks the word "common" being relative since examples from this issue are not rare but certainly not plentiful. Collection includes the following: 1) Mickey Doolan: Old Mill Cigarettes printed at the bottom lavender silk with dark blue printing very attractive with some minor fraying and wrinkling. 2) Orval Overall: Turkey Red Cigarettes printed at bottom dark brown printing on gold silk. Some minor fraying is evident but "overall" eye appeal is strong. 3) Fred Parent: Clean cream-colored silk with rich brown printing and an Old Mill label at the bottom some very light fraying visible at the top and bottom. 4) Lee Tannehill: Old Mill Cigarettes brand printed at the bottom of a lavender silk. Some fading to the blue ink and light wear at the top and bottom. Four silks total.
