I found two cigar boxes in my buddy's basement. I've searched everywhere (Trevor's wonderful site and many other places) to find the year they were sold and what shape the cigars were that were in the boxes. The first box is a Romeo y Julieta Coronas De Luxe that is big enough to hold 25 Double Coronas which is what I think it did. The Second is a tiny H. Upmann Seleccion de Sumprema No. 101 box made for Alfred Dunhill of London. I have obviously heard of Dunhill's and I know Cigar Aficionado did a review on the No. 22 Seleccion Suprema from H Upmann but I haven't seen the 101's anywhere. They are in pretty rough shape and very sadly have no cigars in them but I thought they were interesting and thought I would share. Any help or information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Lol Oz. Not quite, but thanks for the compliment.

I now know they are pre-revolution because of the stamp on the bottom and the lack of date. If you ever read this post Trevor, can you enlighten me on the sizes of the cigars or the years of production. If I'm really lucky maybe a picture of the cigar?

These are really cool history pieces. That's a great find, good luck in researching the dates on them! :D
