In the 1930’s it was fashionable to equate cigarettes with sports, especially baseball, as is clearly expressed here in this 46x34 ad for Old Gold. As it states “America’s Smoothest - Not a Cough in a Carload.” Cardboard die-cut advertising sign has some water damage on the bottom quarter portion. The top three quarters of the sign appears NRMT.
