GHYUBEK --- RICHEST OF ALL TURKISH TOBACCOS
May 12th, 1910
Mr. A. W. Huebner of Boston, Mass. received this advertising dated May 12th, 1910. "Dear Sir: No matter how much he pays only one man in sixteen can smoke cigarettes rolled from Ghyubek, the most fragrant of Turkish tobaccos. Turkey cannot produce enough of these exquisite leaves for everybody. So scarce are they that the best tobacco plants yield but one of the upper or Ghyubek leaves to sixteen of the coarser leaves below. So out of the million of cigarettes made only a small percentage can be exclusively of fragrant Ghyubek. These glorious Ghyubeks - richest of all Turkish tobaccos in the aromatic oils that give flavor and fragrance - we set aside to be used in our cigarette de luxe, Egyptian Deities. This exquisite tobacco is then aged until it develops a wonderful fragrance and flavor that having once tasted, you will never forget. If you wish to experience this glorious fragrance insist upon having Egyptian Deities. Yours very truly, (signed) S. Anargyros"
