  • The Cigarette Card Series of W. Duke, Sons &
    CAPITALIZING ON TABOOS IN ADVERTISING: THE CIGARETTE CARD SERIES OF W. DUKE, SONS & COMPANY by Janet Katelyn Hammond Honors Thesis Appalachian State University Submitted to the Department of History and The Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science May, 2018 Approved by: Michael C. Behrent, Ph.D., Thesis Director Katherine E. Ledford, Ph.D., University Honors Second Reader Allison Fredette, Ph.D., Departmental Honors Second Reader Michael C. Behrent, Ph.D., Departmental Honors Director Jefford Vahlbusch, Ph.D., Dean, The Honors College Hammond 1 Abstract This essay reveals the themes displayed in the cigarette card series produced at W. Duke, Sons & Co. from 1880 to 1900. The following mainly draws upon the cards themselves, the Duke family’s and the business’s correspondence, and other miscellaneous company notes. Topics covered include: a historiography, a family history, an overview of the cigarette and tobacco industries, late-eighteenth century capitalism and advertising methods, the interworking of the Duke company, and how the cigarette card series reflect all of these components. The overall argument is that the executives of this enterprise cashed in on the taboos of this time period while offering no new perspectives about the existing social hierarchy in the United States.

  • A Review of the Post-WWII Baseball Card Industry
    A Review of the Post-WWII Baseball Card Industry Artie Zillante University of North Carolina Charlotte November 25th,2007 1Introduction If the attempt by The Upper Deck Company (Upper Deck) to purchase The Topps Company, Inc. (Topps) is successful, the baseball card industry will have come full circle in under 30 years. A legal ruling broke the Topps monopoly in the industry in 1981, but by 2007 the industry had experienced a boom and bust cycle1 that led to the entry and exit of a number of firms, numerous innovations, and changes in competitive practices. If successful, Upper Deck’s purchase of Topps will return the industry to a monopoly. The goal of this piece is to look at how secondary market forces have shaped primary market behavior in two ways. First, in the innovations produced as competition between manufacturers intensified. Second, in the change in how manufacturers competed. Traditional economic analysis assumes competition along one dimension, such as Cournot quantity competition or Bertrand price competition, with little consideration of whether or not the choice of competitive strategy changes. Thus, the focus will be on the suggested retail price (SRP) of cards as well as on the timing of product releases in the industry. Baseballcardshaveundergonedramaticchangesinthepasthalfcenturyastheindustryandthehobby have matured, but the last 20 years have provided a dramatic change in the types of products being produced. Prior to World War II, baseball cards were primarily used as premiums or advertising tools for tobacco and candy products. Information on the use of baseball cards as advertising tools in the tobacco and candy industries prior to World War II can be obtained from a number of different sources, including Kirk (1990) and most of the annual comprehensive baseball card price guides produced by Beckett publishing.

The Role of the Tobacco Trade in Turkish-American Relations, 1923-29 by Robert Carey Goodman III Candidate for the Master of Arts in History University of Richmond, 1987 Thesis Director: John D. Treadway This study of the tobacco trade between Turkey and the United States provides new perspectives on two major themes in Turkish-American relations between 1923 and 1929: the effect of Turkish nationalism on American interests in Ataturk's Turkey, and the effort to restore Turkish- American diplomatic ties broken during World War I. The marked rise in American cigarette consumption after World War I made the tobacco trade a crucial link between Turkey and America because it required the importation of aromatic tobacco. During the Turkish Republic's first decades, the value of American tobacco imports from Turkey exceeded the value of all American exports to that country. The tobacco trade survived Turkish nationalism and unsatisfactory diplomatic relations because of the financial benefits it brought to both states.

  • Interpreting Historic Site Narratives: Duke Homestead on Tour
    INTERPRETING HISTORIC SITE NARRATIVES: DUKE HOMESTEAD ON TOUR Rachel Crockett Kirby A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Program of Folklore in the Department of American Studies. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Bernard L. Herman Marcie Cohen Ferris Gabrielle A. Berlinger © 2016 Rachel Crockett Kirby ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Rachel C. Kirby: Interpreting Historic Site Narratives: Duke Homestead on Tour (Under the direction of Bernard L. Herman) This thesis uses Duke Homestead State Historic Site and Tobacco Museum as an ethnographic case study to explore a new vocabulary for understanding the power, politics, and production of historical narratives as communicated on guided walking tours. By examining narratives as they fluctuate along an arc from the scripted, the spoken, and the received, I discuss moments of sense-making, discomfort, and disconnect as they occur on the historic site. I focus on the tours’ inclusion, exclusion, and negotiation of Caroline, a young girl who was owned and enslaved by Washington Duke, through which societal expectations of history can be examined in relation to the desires and goals of those who wrote the tour script. Her story offers an example of narrative discomfort, negotiated through hesitation, elision, and derision within the spoken presentation. Many voices contribute to the construction and perpetuation of historical narratives, and this thesis uses the voices of site employees, interns, volunteers, and visitors to understand the dynamism of place-based history. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS As both an undergraduate and graduate student at UNC, I have been supported, guided, and encouraged by countless faculty and graduate students, so I begin my thanks there.

  • The Tobacco Industry Documents What They Are, What They Tell Us, and How to Search Them
    THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY DOCUMENTS WHAT THEY ARE, WHAT THEY TELL US, AND HOW TO SEARCH THEM A PRACTICAL MANUAL The WHO Tobacco Free Initiative would like to thank Dr Norbert Hirschhorn for the preparation of this document. F O R E W O R D THE TOBACCO INDUSTRY DOCUMENTS:WHAT THEY ARE, WHAT THEY TELL US, AND HOW TO SEARCH THEM 04 In 1998, six million once secret documents from seven cigarette manufacturers doing business in the US became available to the public as a result of legal action. There were documents from 7 cigarette manufacturers and two affiliated organizations: Philip Morris Incorporated, R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corporation, British American Tobacco Industries, Lorillard Tobacco Company, the American Tobacco Company, the Liggett Group, the Tobacco Institute and the Council for Tobacco Research. The documents that include letters, fax, memos, etc written by company scientist, consultants, lawyers, top executives, other employees and outside organizations amounted to over 35 million pages. In 2002, the WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean published the first edition of The tobacco industry documents: what they are, what they tell us, and how to search them. A practical manual. The aim was to help journalists, public health professionals and advocates, government officials and the public to search these documents and thereby expand their use outside academia. Recognizing the value of the information contained in these internal industry document archives, while also acknowledging its limitations, the WHO Tobacco Free Initiative decided to publish a second edition of the manual. The information provided in these documents, as well as the reports that have been prepared describing their content, provide a wealth of information about some of the plans and processes of the tobacco companies in their attempt to delay or obstruct tobacco control measures and policies.
