vintage Union Leader Smoking Tobacco cardboard canister, manufactured by the P. Lorillard Company.While Union Leader tobacco was most famously packaged in metal pocket tins, lunchboxes, and humidor cans, this specific all-cardboard and paper construction is a scarcer variant. These cardboard tubs were typically produced as "Victory Packages" during wartime eras (such as World War I or World War II), when sheet metal and tin were heavily rationed for the military effort
