1950s - 1960s Tree Trunk Humidor Auction on eBay

[K Baz]

I noticed this one last night I am not going to bid on it as I need every cent for cigars but I thought there maybe some individuals intrested in this humi/collectable.

I have not verified it with pictures in MRN but it looks good from first glance.

Maybe a nice piece for another BOTL hope someone can pick it up as she look like a great collectable.

Interesting...and bizarre...all at the same time.

This is a Very Rare Branch of the Tree Cabinet for 50 Cigars.

The Cabinet sizes: 16X20 cms.

That translates to 6.25 inches by 7.8 inches. That would barely hold 50 cigarettes.

That is definitely pretty unique, although not very practical. It might make a nice decoration in a cigar room though

That looks pretty cool, but not very practicle.

This particular piece is talked about and photographed extensively in the MRN book.

Theoretically it has 30.67961576 sq in
with a 50 ring gauge cigar taking .4793689962 sq in
It should hold exactly 64 50 ring gauge cigars.
Assuming none are taller than 7.874 inches.
QED.

Wouldn't a 50 ring guage cigar take up .78125 sq in? (50/64). That would be 39 50 RGs.

/2 radius
^2
*pi for area.
