The band could have been warped just by the way they were packed in the box. The wrinkling of the cigar's wrapper leaf may suggest that they were wet at one time, or over humidified and then lost thier humidity. The expansion if the filler tobacco and then sudden drying can leave an ill fitting, wrinkled wrapper, IMHO.
YMMV.

Or it could be that they were rolled without molds/forms, I seem to remember that they didn't use these 'back in the day' and that is why many pre-embargo's have that 'bumpy' appearance. Am I remembering that correctly? I may be way off.
