That and the burned in class G tax marking places it probably between 1959 and 1962 according to the info on Tony Hyman's page:

Very cool info. Thank you. I was talking to Hootie about it and he thought it was pre-embargo.

Hootie definitely knows his stuff.


I'm looking more at the box and what really impresses me is that it still has the original cedar shield that went on top of the cigars. Five decades and it was never damaged, lost or separated from the rest of the box.
