Hi all, I have a question & was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I recently came across a Clear Havana cigar box & to be honest the only reason I gave it a second look was the in insignia on the top. It reads The Sands Las Vegas Nevada. Being a native in Las Vegas we all know that The Sands was a legendary casino on Las Vegas Blvd but came down in 1996 when it was imploded. Under the clasp it reads Number 11 and the back a stamp with the letter “G” and some fine print stating the cigars are to retail for more than 20cents. I’m hoping someone can point me in the direction, via web or literature, as to where I can get more information on cigar boxes. Its kind of straddling the fence between being tobacco collectible and casino collectible. All my searches have come up empty and I have not successfully found anything closely resembling what I have. Thank you in advance for any advice!!

    20 cents cigars, sounds like you may have something there anytime you get something thst falls under more than one collectable type the value increases. Good luck.
