Featuring subjects like well-dressed cigar-smoking gentlemen, amusing animals, athletes and respectable ladies in their finest high-neck garments, they provide a glimpse into a bygone era when the cigar box was the king of the advertising industry. Perforated pages tear out easily and are perfect for being matted, framed, and hung as conversation-starting wall art.
