‘Straphanger,’ the first official release under the Archive Collection, utilized 1940s UK bus tickets for bands. First released was the mareva (5-1/8” x 42”) and then the Double-Decker (6” x 46).
The mareva featured our first ever use of Haitian tobacco, an Olor in the filler. While tweaking the blend for the Double Decker, we discovered and used a Cubra grown in Zimbabwe, which was so tasty it spawned an Archive Collection release of its own, ‘Five-Twenty.’
