Votaries of the Weed No 3 (colour litho)

Votaries of the Weed, No 3. The Knight of the Road, though carelessly and jovially pursuing his nomadic path-envying no politician his politics, nor no dyspeptic his liver-is yet prone to regard one concrete fact in life as being far above mere principalities and powers. This concrete fact is Tobacco. He prefers the plug, roll, or twist variety, a morsel of which, upon emergency, and in order that no time be needlessly wasted, forms for his epicurean palate an admirable and substantial chew. Illustration for one of a set of cigarette cards with the title Votaries of the Weed, issued by Gallaher in 1916.
