This book is for all cigar aesthetes, the smoker passionately fond of ""puros"" as the Cubans call them with infinite respect. During the 19th century when gentlemen wore white gloves at society gatherings, tobacco often left dirty stains on their fingers because of the tobacco leaves which covered their cigars. Therefore, they asked their suppliers to surround them with a paper band for protection. Those bands became the armorial signet ring that identified a man. Recognition of a social status, commemorative symbol or, more simply, a mark of quality, the cigar band developed its own codification. Brilliant artists have lent their talent to create them. The collection represented is exceptional. These cigar bands tell us part of the story of the last 150 years, from the general of the Civil War, the Presidents of the United States of America, the Emperors of Germany to the delicate flowers reproduced by craftsmen.

Cigar-bands have sdorned cigars for more than 150 years. Until World War I they were produced and printed to the hightest quality using the best methods available, with the result that many cigar-bands of the time are genuine works of art. Images depicted on the bands are varied, but specific themes may be distinguished – flowers and foliage, for example, or heraldic ‘charges’, or of course portraits of contemporary rulers and celebrities. This book features nearly 1,800 cigar-bands drawn from the collection of Roger van Reeth, including some of the most beautiful, some of the rarest and some of the oldest. Their presence adds something special to what is already a special publication: the Flavour, perhaps, of a superb Havana cigar.

In the first decade of the 20th century, the labels that graced cigar boxes were miniature works of art. Admired for the fine detail, superb design, and decorative flourishes, the labels encompassed a wide range of artistic vignettes. Among them were lovely ladies admiring boxes of such brands as First Blush and Madame Butterfly; portraits of Tom Mix and Sherlock Holmes; as well as illustrations of cowboys, sailors, gentlemen in evening wear, dogs, racehorses, and other images. This volume features 89 of these rare, full-color designs. Not only are they masterpieces of commercial art, they also lend themselves to a variety of art and craft applications. Commerical artists and designers will find this collection a superb sourcebook of royalty-free period graphics that can easily be reproduced on a color copier. Collagists and other craftspeople will want to add this book to their design libraries, while nostalgia enthusiasts will delight in the charms of advertising art from bygone days.
