Newark New Jersey 1950 Waitt Bond Blackstone Cigars Letterhead - 8.5 x 11

This July 7, 1950 Waitt & Bond Inc. Blackstone Cigars letterhead from Newark, New Jersey documents mid-century tobacco advertising coordination between manufacturer and retailer.

Waitt & Bond operated as a major American cigar manufacturer, with Blackstone among its prominent brands in the first half of the twentieth century. Tobacco firms of this era maintained active relationships with regional candy companies, wholesalers, and small retailers, often supplying promotional materials and advertising copy. Corporate correspondence frequently addressed display use, print advertisements, and brand promotion within local markets, reflecting the structured sales networks that supported national tobacco distribution.

The 8.5 x 11 inch sheet features the WAITT & BOND, INC. masthead with designation as manufacturers of Blackstone Cigars and the Newark, N.J. address. The typed letter references forwarding a cut of a WAITT & BOND YANKEE Supreme cigar for advertising purposes and requests confirmation of its use, illustrating direct sales department oversight. The clean layout, centered date line, and ink signature of M. J. Ford, Sales Department, present a clear example of formal postwar business stationery from the tobacco industry.
