Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Little Willie's Wild Woodbines - query

I am almost certain that 'Wills Wiffs' were cigars not cigerettes. Sold in a yellow packet.

I also bought woodbines in packets of five as a teenager in the 50's. I believe that only woodbines and weights were produced in packets of five. All the others were sold in tens I believe.

BTW, woodbine is another name for honeysuckle, the picture on the packet.
