In his so-called Tobacco still-lifes executed at the beginning of the s, which, like the present Sweet Caporal belonging to the Thyssen-Bornemisza collection, were inspired by cigarette packs, he not only exploits the formal potential of such packages but is interested in them as cultural products. Perhaps, as Bonnie L. Grad suggests, this appropriation of different quotidian objects is inspired by the Dadaist works of Marcel Duchamp. Employing a language inherited from synthetic Cubism, in Sweet Caporal Davis shows his fascination with reproducing the words printed on the packaging of modern consumer products or billboards, which he furthermore uses as a device for emphasising the flatness of the pictorial composition. Cubism provided him with the key to making the transition from perception to conceptualization and he embraced a new type of painting based on Cubist collages with a series of overlapping planes, in a continual interplay of perspective and two-dimensionality.

Shortly after picking up a handful more as a novelty than anything , I found about low-grade cards with the backs mostly missing. They were inexpensive on an individual basis but, collectively, still cost a good amount of money. Despite knowing little about the set, really, in terms of who was in it, I was desperate to find out more. So I bought them. Dated to around , they are similar in appearance to the more popular N Old Judge baseball cards , which also originate from that era. These cards feature real sepia photographs affixed to thick pieces of cardboard with advertisements for Sweet Caporal on the back. Vintage Non-Sports Auctions says there are about 2,, different cards, not accounting for the back variations. Like Old Judge cards, you can find them with all sorts of minor size differences.
