Yup! I am pretty sure that that is it, even though he gave me singles, not an entire box. That looks right. So it would seem that these are NOT the same Cuba Libre cigars currently available?

That is correct.

The old Cuba Libres came from two different manufacturers - one in Honduras and the other in Nicaragua, one was boxed, the other came in bundles only. I believe there were some minor differences in the bands too. The new Cuba Libres are from Nestor Plascencia IIRC, and have no association with the old ones aside from the name (which Cigars International now owns).
