Coker’s Gold Dollar tobacco growing in our tobacco variety test. 
Coker’s Pedigreed 
VA. BRIGHT LEAF 
Virginia Bright Leaf, as its name indicates, is a bright 
cigarette type and a popular variety. It grows a leaf of 
superior quality but fewer pounds per acre than some of 
our other varieties. 
This tobacco has made a good record in the eastern 
section of the flue-cured belt and has done especially 
well on medium to lighter grades of tobacco soil. The 
quality and yield of Virginia Bright Leaf has been greatly 
improved by our breeders since we began working with 
it in 1929. This year’s strain cures to a good lemon color 
except when planted on heavier clay soils. The fibers in 
the leaves are smaller and a more uniform ripening has 
reduced blue butts to a minimum. 
PRICES: $1.00 per ounce; $7.00 per half pound; $13.00 
per pound, postpaid.
