Check This out...Experts needed

[Jonnyjay]

Hi all

I have had this for over 10 years. In fact I first found it in my grandfathers loft before I even started to smoke cigars.

I was hoping someone could shed some light on its significance and background. It looks to be signed by the man himself....

What do you guys think?

Nice. I don't think its an 'original' signature..? The attached link shows a similar label-

Nice memento. Perhaps get in touch with H&F and talk to them about it?

Looks to be what it appears to be, i.e a genuine antique cigar box label, framed and mounted for posterity by H&F. Could be of value to a collector.

Very nice my man! I don't have that one.
I think they were used by retailers a good few years ago as evidenced by the old London phone prefix.

I have a few that I've picked up from eBay over the years:

Cheers bra!!

It's taken a lot of years to find those bits and pieces as they so seldom appear anywhere. I don't think those framed labels were ever available to the public!!!???!?!

That is a really nice display wall you have there Stevie. Is this part of a smoking room?

They look really impressive [MENTION=39]Stevieboy[/MENTION]. Did the cigar size chart come from Ebay too?

[DogManDude]

That looks awesome Steve!

[Stevieboy]

cheers guys

@wayne - Yes it was from ebay. I think it was only a tenner plus shipping on top. Not bad since it came framed too

love those Stevie! I won't pretend I'm not jealous. I've got some old cigar adverts I've picked up from eBay I really should frame.

Awesome guys!
