Cuba cigar price list from 1969 interview questions for Doug the man behind the catalog

[Trinidad]

Hey everyone I’m going to do a little sit down with Doug this week the man behind the order catalog from 1969. To clear up some of the common questions. Talk about the cigar market at the time and how he came about ordering these. Hopefully answer questions about some of the unknown vitolas that are in the book. If you all have any questions you would like me to ask please do so in the comments as he would love to hear them is is an awesome guy. I would like to keep this stuff for the history books because once it’s gone it’s gone I will be recording the conversation and hopefully publishing it for you all to hear.  Thanks everyone for the interest and questions

At what age did he start with cigars? Doesn't look bad with over 50 years of smoking under his belt.

Thoughts on the boom in the late '90s and its impact on the market and product overall.

What was your favorite cigar in 1969? Why? 
 

How have cigars changed over time (besides the ever-growing ring gauge)?

thanks for sharing this catalog. It’s really interesting to see stuff like this.
