The Peterson blends are made in exactly the same facility and machines with the same tobacco as the other label.

With the blends being identical, I wouldn't think many would pay more for the Dunhill label except for those looking for aged versions or blends that weren't continued.

I'm sure there are collectors of tins too that would want them. I always liked the tin art on Nightcap myself.

Sure, because it’s slightly different looking, and has the Dunhill name. And internet know-it-all’s will swear that the tobacco contained in these grails is somehow much more desirable... ?

Absolutely! P T Barnum is the patron saint of the vintage tobacco market.

Yes. Plus they'll have more age on 'em.
