Default Box Art

There's some cool stuff out there now-days for sure, but man looking at some of the vitage boxes...I'm just in awe of the art... Anyone else dig the old (or new) art? post up something you like if you can get a pic of it....here's a few of my favs I found while perusing the net for them...

I've always loved vintage advertising art, too. Those are some nice examples.

I see old boxes in antique stores but have never picked any up. I think they are so cool since that was their main source of advertisement. Way cool

I've been thinking of scanning some into the 'puter and printing them up for framing and putting them in the man cave as decor...

I have a coffee table book loaded with this stuff... It's called "The Art Of The Cigar Label" by Joe Davidson. Really is a neat book.
