    Didnt know anywhere else to post this. I found a box of 1926 corona grandes cigars. The box is rather intact, the paper is still there that goes over the cigars themself and the box is half full. Anyone know the price on these babies? They smell amasing. Unlike any other cigar ive smelled. The box is still in good shape, i think, from what ive seen. There are alot of labels on it! Ill attach the photos of them here. Ive emailed the actual company "coronas" asking for any information, so far nothing back.

    i was gonna say:

    have you considered auctioning them on ebay?

    maybe one at a time?

    i think i'd keep the box though

    just out of shere coolness

    (on the other hand, if you happen yourself to be a tobaccohaulic,
    just think of all the poor peaons you could be looking down
    your nose at every time you lit up a $20,000.00 see-gar)

    I found them in the back room. I got them along time ago from a kid whos grandpa use to own a store out of his house. He had a bunch of old cigar box's. Few with actual cigars in them. I moved and these got packed up, just refound them again.

    10 bucks? Yeah right, a new box of these babies alone is 300 dollars. Im curious to what this old box is then worth ;)

    I saw the word "Habana" on the box in one of the pictures, so those are Cubans if they came in that box. I would think that a company producing cigars in 1926 in Cuba would, at the very least, have been absorbed into another, larger company. Since it's Cuba we're talking about, I wouldn't be surprised if that company no longer exists. You might want to contact Cigar Aficionado (http://www.cigaraficionado.com/Cigar/Home/). If they don't know about those cigars, they know someone who will.
