Hey all. I won't get into the specifics of how I got it cause I'm short on time. I was wondering if anyone (mainly the "wiser" fellows) had ever heard of Old Hill Side Pipe Tobacco? I know it's old but thought maybe someone here would know some info from their fathers/grandfathers/ whatever smoking it or something like that. Anyway, here are some pictures!

Here's a court document for them. I guess they had a little tax trouble. It appears they've been around longer then 1987.

Can't find much else about them. I have seen bags of Roll Your Own Cigarette tobacco for sale on some sites, So I guess they're still around. Shoot them an e-mail with those pictures and see if they can tell you how old it is.
