Old cigar boxes are full of history. Conrad Weiser Cigars, manufactured in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, many years ago, are a good example. Weiser, says Wikipedia, "was a German Pennsylvanian pioneer, interpreter and effective diplomat between the Pennsylvania Colony and Native Americans. He was a farmer, soldier, monk, tanner, and judge as well. He contributed as an emissary in councils between Native Americans and the colonies, especially Pennsylvania, during the 18th century's tensions of the French and Indian War (Seven Years' War)."
