This is a collection of five vintage Prince Albert Crimp Cut Tobacco tins. These iconic red metal cans are well-known collectibles and once contained tobacco for pipes and hand-rolled cigarettes. Prince Albert tobacco was introduced in 1907 by the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, and the brand has been owned by John Middleton Inc. since 1987. The tins feature a portrait of a figure resembling King Edward VII (who was known as Prince Albert before his coronation) wearing a "Prince Albert" style coat. The phrase "Crimp Cut Long Burning Pipe and Cigarette Tobacco" is prominently displayed.Prince Albert pocket tobacco tins are highly sought-after vintage advertising items, with their value varying based on factors like rarity, condition, and age.
The brand is famously associated with the "Prince Albert in a can" practical joke, where someone calls a store asking if they have "Prince Albert in a can," and upon confirmation, the prankster replies, "Well, you'd better let him out!"
