Name That Flake!

[transpose]

Can you correctly guess all 4 of these flakes? I took all the pictures with an iPhone, same lighting, and no editing (other than cropping). I was thinking this would be fun to do just for education and bragging rights, but if I'm allowed to I'll mail an average pipe-full sample of each tobacco to the first person who gets all 4 correct. I'll only mail to the CONUS; however, If you're outside the CONUS, I'll gladly mail them to one of your friends in the CONUS
FLAKE #1

FLAKE #2

FLAKE #3

These tins or bulk?

I'm guessing the first two are C&D/GL Pease, just because they don't look like they were ever super clean flakes.

So far there are no more correct guesses. That said, there are a couple really close guesses. Tomorrow morning I will post 1 more picture of each. I will do my best to capture the best representation of each flake. I will also put a quarter in each shot to help with sizing.
