Cello question? Yellow= age?

I'm glad to see ya'll talking about this. A friend of mine went to a B&M which is no longer in business. He found a Torano with yellowed cello and a different band than what is in use today. Then later he went and found a Hoyo with yellowed cello. Is there any way to estimate the age of a cigar from the yellowed cello?

I wouldn't think so.....probably each batch of cellophane yellows at a different rate. Pry the more yellowed it is, the greater likelihood that it is older then a less yellowed cello, but not a definite.
