Bull Durham Tobacco (PG XXII)



How many of these have you ever seen? Counting this one, I've seen one. Painted Gentleman 22 is on the Union Hotel on Main Street in Bedford, PA. I'm not really sure what the other advertisement towards the front of the building is, but the Tobacco ad is still clear enough you can see the bull. I Googled Bull Durham Tobacco and didn't find out too much. From Durham, NC, they became part of the American Tobacco Company who at the time was run by Washington Duke, a Civil War POW, who was the namesake of Duke University.
