Prince Albert Can. c. 1930. From the man who inspired the crank call craze, this Prince Albert tobacco tin was a permanent feature of my father’s junk drawer, his affection for which is now lost to the ages. Why do I have it?—I couldn’t say. Familial whatnot’s tend to stay in the family, I guess. Whatever magic it held for him is unknown. Unless…could it have been my father who finally let the Prince out of the can?
