Notes:
An advertisement showing four figures imposed on a map of the U.S., showing that "From Maine to California, General Arthur Cigars are Preferred by Discriminating Smokers." The figure in the northeast wears a top hat, in Texas a cowboy hat, in San Francisco a bowler. It's not clear who the midwestern figure represents - perhaps an immigrant to Chicago.
