2 high quality decks by tobacco companies. Which one is better?
-
Going with the Watermelon bees.
In my opinion, I think they handle much better than the slims. Then again, the only Slims deck I've handled was pretty well-used.

Another battle where I'm dealing with decks I don't collect... No tobacciana.

I feel the same way about collecting Railway cards.

I am banning anyone that doesn't vote for the Slims. Carry on.

Slims all the way. They had slick marketing!

What's the deal with their packaging? I've seen the boxes you have in that photo, but all the ones I own came in a two-deck sleeve.

I'm there with you Don. My Father was one of those people, but I also know that no one put a gun to his head and said smoke this. While I'm not really interested in promoting a tobacco company. I think the days of Marlboro and Camel bucks are long gone. With few exceptions, I don't think we will see things like this made too often. As a collector I wouldn't mind having these in my collection, but there are probably 500 other decks I would buy first. I chose the Slims.
Don, did you abstain from voting on this one?

You are correct. I neither own nor desire either deck.

It also came as a single deck advertisement. I thought it was pretty common. No?

From what little I know of it, they aren't so common. Most people find these decks sans extra packaging, some find them as the two-deck set, but this is the first single-deck ad package I've seen.

Then let me give you a tour...
-
I voted for the RJRTC Bees! I like the Slims but the back of the card doesnt grab me. The main thing about the Slims is the Packaging. The RJRTC Bees POP! They grab my attention, I really like the red deck, the color really stands out.

Slims win by 2!

They won by a slim margin!
