My favourite cigar-related themed art is below. My wife graciously put my cigar bands together into a display for our bar a few years ago...  

Love my Montessa. In the foyer at work.   

I',m pleased with how these came out.

Fernando "Ferdie" Pacheco Jimenez (1927-2017)

[Ybor City Cigar Makers' Strike of 1931] 

Oil on canvas

A vivid and bustling depiction of the cigar makers' strike of 1931 that took place in the Ybor City neighborhood of Tampa, Florida. The cigar workforce had long been organized, and in response to falling wages during the Great Depression, the Tobacco Workers Industrial Union engaged in radical demonstrations, including an anniversary celebration of the Russian Revolution. Seventeen workers were jailed, and the Lector, a worker who read newspapers aloud, was accused of proliferating Communist propaganda and expelled. This led to a three-week strike that was opposed by the police, vigilante squads, and the Ku Klux Klan. 

 

Ferdie Pacheco (1927-2017), also known as The Fight Doctor, was the personal physician and cornerman for world heavyweight boxer Muhammad Ali and later became a well-known boxing commentator on television. A self-taught artist, most of his works focused on boxing and the Ybor City neighborhood of Tampa, Florida, where he grew up.
