Two Humidors - Pretty Cool!

WaxingMoon · 11-25-2010, 10:44 AM

I recently moved to Charleston, SC.... and one of the cool things about living here is that it is an OLD city.... Stumbled across these in my travels and have added them to my "collection"....

Both are copper lined.... use to be the mainstay back in the day.... I'm sure they never heard of the paper test.

Enjoy - And, Happy Thanksgiving Everybody!!!

This one is circa 1920.... (I wonder if a dog chewed the corner or if the BOTL's wife made him quit smoking)....

This one is circa 1940.... Note the humidification technology that's been added....

Pretty cool finds, thanks for sharing the pics. Are you going to leave them as is or are you thinking of restoring?

I saw one of these on my local craigslist for $100. If I had a reason and space to put them......
