When cigarette companies used to buy tobacco the American Tobacco Company was buying huge amounts for the American Cigarettes. The auctioneer would say "sold American" every time they won the lot. This happened many times as the company was buying numerous lots of the Tobacco being auctioned to meet the great need for tobacco for the cigarettes that were becoming much more popular than cigars. That is what I heard once and believe it was a true story.
