I hope someone noticed that this was the brand of cigars that were stolen from the Capt. on "The Pacific" tonight

[NeverEnoughStick]

I did notice that. When were these released? I imagine probably before my time on this great earth.

[Eagle53]

from what ive seen they were big in about the time of the 30s and 40s as all the advertisements for Roi-Tan are from that period (which makes perfect sense for "The Pacific"). I dont know when they died off or when they started

[captain53]

My Dad smoked Roi-Tans up until the early 70's or so.

[Emjaysmash]

I want one. lol Man to man, of course.

[NeuRon]

Ive had one actually.. dont know the vintage, but i believe it was 40's.. it was pretty damn good!

holy crap! the big guy is jerry seinfeld's "father"!

MY WALLET'S GONE! MY WALLET'S GONE!

[whodeeni]

Looks like they were some pretty "Good Sized" Perfecto's...
I loved the smile that the cigars put on each guy's face
That was very powerful/persuasive Marketing....

Sending the subliminal message: If you have a problem
smoke a Roi-Tan and it goes away....:banger

[BC-Axeman]

Now I'm going to have that jingle stuck in my head.
Man to man smoke a Roi-Tan....
