California Nugget Chop Cut Tobacco Pouch. The hunt is on!!!

I was searching the net as I usually do, trying to find out more information on my California Nugget Chop Cut Tobacco Tin. I was on Google Images when I saw what kinda looked like my tin, with the label California Nugget Pouch on the picture. Pouch? I didn't even know a pouch existed that matched this tin. As a matter of fact until that moment, I didn't consciously  know about any tobacco pouches. Once I saw one, and thought about it, images of cowboys in old black and white movies having a pouch and papers, rolling their ciggs popped into my head. Oh yeah! Duh!

This pouch looked just like my tin. It also seemed to be the perfect shape for the tin to fit right in it. After looking at the pictures for about 2 seconds, and the shock of finding it, I had to have it. I mean I absolutely positively had to have it. This was even before I seen the price, location, or even which website I was on. I got even more excited when I noticed "1892" marked on the pouch. Now I had a date for my tin!!! This was some of the info that sent me on the daily search anyway. (Both pictures at the end)

The ad was placed on a seemingly up and coming collectibles website. The person had the pouch listed with a price and offers accepted. So I did some research on tobacco pouches and what they were going for. He was asking at least four times what I was seeing the higher end pouches were go for, so I made him an offer of half the price. Even then, my offer was still more then double what other tobacco pouches were going for. Now I just had to wait and see if he accepted my offer.
