The – Nude Cigar Girl

August 7, 2013

“Nude Cigar Girl” by artist Michael Spano was created as his tribute to the better things in life. Enjoying a sensual woman and the pleasure of a good cigar. Both should be appreciated for how they satisfy the senses. Michael's artwork is available at ArtBySpano.com We licensed this image from Michael Spano after a customer contacted us and wanted this image for their own spills and spillboxes. Well, we like to do things right and reached out to Mr. Spano to make sure we did this all legally, appropriately and properly; the best ideas come from our customers. We are thrilled to now offer this beautiful artwork to you, adding something a little steamy to your cigar or pipe smoking…

Cigar Maker Placards

June 24, 2013

At long last and after much effort we are happy to present out “Cigar Maker Placards” for sale. First the background – We created a few of these for a local cigar shop who in the beginning simply did not have enough “cigar stuff” for their walls. Now that they have these placards (we gave them to the owner for free), and other cigar swag, on the walls they get the cigar maker's who come through town for events autograph them.

IPCPR 2012 in Orlando

October 19, 2012

It was great being a vendor and member at IPCPR 2012 in Orlando, Florida this year. I shared the booth with Hutch Hutchison a world renown scrimshaw artist who creates custom artwork on Xikar cutters that are really beautiful and often collectors items. We were happy to add several new states and local tobacconists to our family.  The show is not open to a public; as they need to get business done, but your local tobacconists were working to get the best deals.  In my opinion there is just so much good product out there to try today so buy local and smoke with friends!
