I found this box of cigars while cleaning. Just wondering if there is any value?

    They have not been in a humidor, so wouldn’t be smokable. The box itself is in fair to good shape on the outside.

    Cool box. Would make a great clock @90+_Irishman

    There is always value, but the value is what someone is willing to pay.
    And with cigars that haven't been kept right, the value is novelty, not much more.

    Would like to see the bottom of the box. Is there a stamp or branding stamp on the bottom?

    When I say value, I’m not necessarily asking about a monetary value as much as is there someone out there who would enjoy having something like this? Or should I just throw the cigars away and make a clock like waternerd suggested?
    there is a stamp on the bottom that says “25 zigarren”.

    WHAT? Somebody stopping in to brighten our day instead of selling us some worthless crap at an exorbitant price, kudos.

    They appear to be of German origin just picking up on the labels.
    A little dirt never hurt

    Yes, someone will enjoy the intrinsic uniqueness of it. No do not the cigars out. It has more appeal the way it is.
    I was hoping it had a date stamp.
    It should have, but may be inside.
    Webmost made an offer, might want to consider it.

    I was hoping someone would point out these five little extras. I'm not familiar. They are not included in the "zigarren" count. They have stems. Are they cigarillos?

    Thanks for all of the replies. The five little extras are holders with plastic tips. I’m not sure if you can do PM’s from the thread, but if you (webmost) would like to get in touch, we can work something out. Maybe a couple of good smokes that you think would be a fair trade, works for me.

    To get someone's attention, put their forum name like this:  @webmost .  That will trigger a "you have a message" or "you were mentioned by..." on his page when he logs on.

    Zigarren is German.  Neuhaus might be the name of the tobacco shop as in New House.  As to the holders, I know the Germans like filters in their pipes.  Yes, I know it is a year later but the forum listed the post as unanswered so I was just checking it out.  Don’t ask why I’m up and posting this early on a Saturday.
