Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index Prince Albert is a brand of pipe tobacco sold by John Middleton, Inc. The brand gained widespread recognition, perhaps infamously, due to the classic crank call, where the caller asks if the store has 'Prince Albert in a can' and when the unexpecting clerk responds 'yes', the caller follows up with 'you better let him out!' Despite this negative publicity, Prince Albert is one of the more popular independent brands of tobacco in the US. More recently, it has also become available in the form of pipe-tobacco cigars.
