This is an authentic antique George Washington Cut Plug tobacco cloth pouch, manufactured by R.J. Reynolds in the early 20th century. Unlike the more commonly found metal tins, this example is made of printed cloth, making it a desirable and less frequently seen form of tobacco packaging.
The pouch features a bold patriotic design with an image of George Washington, surrounded by stars and stripes, and prominently printed with the phrase “Greatest American Cut Plug.” The reverse side includes period advertising text reading “Smoke and Chew George Washington Cut Plug – Ready for the Pipe.”
Printed manufacturer information on the fabric identifies R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., Winston-Salem, N.C., U.S.A., helping to firmly place this piece in the pre-1920s era, when cloth tobacco pouches were still in circulation.
