In the early 2000s, I was gifted some cigar box art by a cigar buddy in the old alt.smokers.cigars newsgroup. Fast forward to 18ish years later, and I finally had them framed and picked them up today.
The cigar box art is from between approx 1890-1910, and is an amazing condition considering the age. And I have to give credit to the guy who helped me at the Michael's Framing counter and picked out the colors - they came out great. Hard to see in the pics, but the frames have a leather-like texture to them that really adds to the look.
Looking forward to getting these up in my cigar room (which is actually the family room leading out to the back yard). Just need to shuffle some other stuff around in there first.
