Ten Fags
Posted: June 28, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized 1 Comment »
Lily and Dane are both growing tobacco. So in the spirit of American Spirit, a package prototype for a new brand of cigarette made from organically-grown Virginia tobacco and aimed at the discriminating smoker. I’m recycling the old water-colour of Sitting Bull I did for Judy Garfin’s class back in the 80s. Very excited about this new venture even though we’ll probably only have enough leaf to make ten fags. And then there are the health warning labels. I’m thinking old tooth and lung x-rays.
A helpful hint. Old wine corks make excellent filter tips. Also Eucalyptus oil sprinkled judiciously over the Tobackky plants make for organic menthols. Will Alex be the New Tilsonburg & Delhi both of which are over to Glencoe® whence my ain folk hail since 1831. Why not make cigarette papers and call them Vague ( Nouvelle ?). As for duty free I think youse will find it’s a labour intensive operation. Maybe get migrant workers from that are what is called Mile End. Warning labels? “Querb yr smoking”
