History of cigar box labels and art

[rcelano]

Got interested in old cigar box labels and art. Then wanted to learn more about the history of cigars in the U.S. I started buying old labels that had never been on a cigar box (they were stored in old warehouses). Didn't know there was a collectors demand for them. I then found the following video on the history and art of the cigar box label: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TUi2TNOVvg

If anyone has any additional information on this subject, please provide.
Thank You

I have several framed in my man cave. Little glimpses of Americana, and they are quite beautiful as well. Lots to choose from on eBay as well.
