My sister has some tobacco felts. They were premiums given with tobacco in the early 1900s. There is one with a US flag that has 41 stars on it. I need info to find info on this felt. They are made of flannel about 5″x8″. The 41st state was Montana, admitted Nov.8,1898. Could they have been made then too?
