Cigar Box Wednesday



Just a bit of a departure this last Wednesday of the year. Not about what's in the cigar boxes, but where to get them. I'm sure everyone knows you can go to your local cigar shop and pick them up. There are still a few proprietors that will save them for you and even make a gift of them. Others will charge a nominal fee. Thrift stores, swap meets and flea markets will usually turn up a few and I guess some of you might actually know someone who smokes (more and more rare these days). But the best sources are on-line cigar sites. They will send you empty boxes for around $1.00 a piece, $2.00 each for the classy wooden ones. Try Thompson Cigars and Black Cat Cigar Company. And then of course, after they come, you have the fun of filling them up with fantastic ephemera!
