Cigars

Years ago my Dad worked in the wholesale grocery and tobacco trades, and he's just moved into Residential care, so we're emptying his house.

We've come across lots of "treasures", but specifically a few rather large - 10 or 11" long - cigars, individually boxed in wooden boxes. Obviously they've not been kept in optimum humidity conditions, but they've not disintegrated either.

Anyone know where we might get some info on these - my sister remembers them from her childhood in the '50s, so they're a couple of years old.........

I know with this being a Rover site, I'd get more help if it were pipes and slippers, not cigars, but you never know!

TIA
