Lehman Brothers- Companies have Humidors?

Well, I just read a article that many of the Lehman Brothers employees here in the United States are selling off a lot of there company "swag" on ebay. One thing that really caught my attention was a Lehman Brother Humidor. I never knew a company would give employees humidors! Man, I am working for the wrong company- Need to find one that hands out desktop humi's.

Anyways, I thought some BOTL's might find this interesting:

Re: Lehman Brothers- Companies have Humidors?

Pretty cool.

Note to self: Save the $115, buy a $20 humi and inscribe "Lehman Brothers" on the lid. Voila, lol

Re: Lehman Brothers- Companies have Humidors?

Wow.....could be a collector's item.....it's kind of sad; the end of an era....158-year old company....biggest bankruptcy in U.S. history.

Please watch the following for one of the funniest clips you will ever see from a live CNN shoot about the collapse. Completely safe of work:

hehe, VERY TRUE! I guess I can say that I am at least still getting a pay check, even if it is quite small and does not include a humi

I still feel bad for all of the employees of that company. Seems like many of them were also stock holders of the company, and have lost everything.

Re: Lehman Brothers- Companies have Humidors?

I didn't feel too sorry for these dudes until they were selling their humis.

Re: Lehman Brothers- Companies have Humidors?

Am I the only one who noticed who these are being sold by?

These are not being sold by Lehman Brothers Employees, they are being sold by CHEAP HUMIDORS, just trying to capitalize on a situation

Also, there are atleast 5 in the Buy-it-now, and can be had for $69.99 without bidding and free shipping

You can also get the same humidor without the Lehman Brothers name printed on it for $19.99 and put the name on it yourself

Looks like a corporate gift, possibly from a golf tournament. Not uncommon.
