RyJ Glass Jar

[jrfoxx]

Yup, ran across the Upmann jars during my search for information about mine.

Basically the same aside from the marca and you still have the cedar sleeve for yours.

I actually don't mind that mine is missing is, as i like to see the cigars in it. Makes it look better to me.

I now know for sure that it is pre-embargo at least, and a very knowledgeable tobbaciana collector on another forum said he thinks it is 1940's due to how it looks, having the same basic style of other types of glass jars from that period.

Its also quite heavy as the glass is very thick. I can't imagine carrying it around with the strap as a travel humidor that's for sure.

Regardless, its a gorgeous tobbaciana item to add to my rooms all cigar decor aside from a few Navy items. I'm very grateful to my good friend who was willing to part with it and send it too me as part of a care package.


The glass jars seem to be quite rare compared to ceramic ones that i see tons of when googling

Mine also doesn't have the "Churchill En Tubo" etched into the front of the brass ring, which makes me think its older than most i find for sale or sold.

I friggin love cigars
