What am I looking for?

A new main theme called, Tobacciana History.

 

[drwatson]

Ahh! Sweet Thanks Stan

 

[ssjones]

Well, a good idea and good work by Kevin to make it a reality.
I'll eventually migrate appropriate threads to this section. However in the meantime,if you see a thread that belongs, just PM me the link and I'll make the move.
Misterlowercase is our resident historian. His diligent research work is very much appreciated and appears to be enjoyed by many. It will be nice to have those all in one section.

 

[randelli]

I love learning from all of you and I am sure that I will spend a lot of time in this section soaking it all in!

 

[mcitinner1]

How does one PM a link?????!!!!!

 

[simong]

Will you be transferring mlc's past posts under the new thread posting? As I've only seen his recent ones if you were to put them altogether that would be a job well done.

Mc- Go to the page you want to send a link to Al, copy the URL (address), paste it in a PM.

So great to finally see this topic become a real thing! I really love hearing the backgrounds and stories behind this great hobby!

 

[okiescout]

A smashing good idea! Thanks so very much sir.

Right on! Thanks Kevin, Al and MLC. MLC's photo-essays are one of my favorite parts of the forum. :clap:

What about a nomination thread where links could be posted as we find them? That might save you time and allow folks to weigh in on what belongs and what does not.

 

[twangthang]

Love it!

A subject worth it's own section

 

[ssjones]

I liked Buroaks idea - so I changed the title of this thread to the "Historic Nomination Thread". Just put link here that need moved to the History section and I'll move them.

 

[gloucesterman]

Some of the material that gets posted here is really fantastic and of great educational value. This makes a great resource for us all. Thanks Kevin.

There are a few histrionic threads that should be nominated for something...
I have nothing worthy to contribute, but am very excited to see this topic finally get its own home. I'm sure it goes without saying each volume of the Antiquarian Nicotiana Brittanica should be compiled for posterity. ::
