to tell you the honest truth i do not recall. personally i don't know how much i would trust buying anything like this off of craigslist or ebay etc. so i didn't really pay attention.

I only know of three of these never before have I seen anyone else have one.

As far as smoking I would not hesitate to smoke the ones I have since I know of there proper storage but this is a very old and rare cigar so I dont think I could smoke it knowing that.

Fair enough, not buying off Ebay etc. is a pretty good policy.

How about you Nickkrav, would you put a value on yours?

Just out of interest.

Some other collectors on another forum (late last year) has them too rare (more of a novelty) but they are floating around.

enjoy.:-)

I would put them on the website but they don't fit. :-D

Nick, Is the cigar in a glass tube or cello?

Yes this cigar is in a glass tube. I have never put a value on it because I never thought about selling it.

The other site that you guys have seen these cigars I have posted the pitchers

I couldn´t take a look at the pics. I have had that cigar on my hand for the first time in June this year, when I visited a collector´s home where he has a large collection of tobacco items. He owns two visible inmenso, a pic of Fidel smoking one of them, autographed by Fidel himself. The cigar is packed in a Coffin case 50 cm long and it was in good condition after all these years.

I would post the pics later on.
