One for the Man Cave: tobacco humidors after Peko, German, circa 1908,

[El Presidente]

 

I love finding knick knacks like this for the Man Cave. You can be pretty sure no one else in your block/city has one 

 

A rare pair of tobacco humidors after Peko, German, circa 1908,
comprising male, number 9523/54, and female, painted 44 to base, character heads ceramic jars, with removable hat lids, the larger 14.5cm high. (2)

Provenance

The cartoon 'The Tourists' by Peko was originally published as a satirical print and introduced a well-rounded cigar smoking character, whose image sold well as a print and as tobacco jars. The print also introduced the lesser known character of his veiled wife, whose image as a tobacco jar is rare to find as sales were extremely low in comparison to those to her portly partner.

Awsome, they would fit a robusto easy. I want one.
