I had five pouches of Backwoods given to me by an ex-BOTL (health reasons forced quitting). They are the closest I've seen to the ones Eastwood's characters smoke. I think the ones I recieved came from Thompson (which is altogether fitting, IMO)

I gave them away last Holloween to a BOTH leaf that needed them for a costume party.

I know Backwoods were not around then, but closest I've seen of todays smokes in resemblence.

These roughneck cigars may also be what you're looking for, they are similiar to the backwoods.
There is a link at the bottom, I found them on thompson but you should be able to find them elsewhere, probably cheaper.
