I really hope in 2014 was good for year and with little good luck this one will even be much better.
I lately grabbed the December problem of The Cigar Aficionado. There was a huge write-up in it on stogie souvenirs accumulating. Some points there held true and others were not. But that is normal; anything contacted thrill people usually has to consist of some overestimations. That is the type of things publications do, they embellish the fact or in this instance “numbers” to make the story appearance much more incredible. However the short article obtained me thinking: why don’t I write something beneficial on the subject of cigar memorabilia gathering? If you are a stogie cigarette smoker you must appreciate at least a little something concerning stogie history or a minimum of littles it.
This tale goes, that in 1860 at the age of 18 a person called Ignacio Haya showed up from Escalante, Spain to Havana, Cuba. Seven years later Ignacio Haya relocated to New York City, where he developed a stogie company with his buddy Serafin Sanchez. Although their service succeeded, around that exact time there was a really strong movement among factory workers towards unionization. So Ignacio and also his close friend Serafin chose to move to Tampa florida, Florida, after that a center of Spanish immigrants coming from Cuba.
In 1885 Ignacio Haya purchased 10 acres beside Ybor City and started construction of the structure for his new manufacturing facility. On April 16, 1886 Sanchez Y Haya rolled their very first stogie at Manufacturing facility No. 1 in Ybor City, which is now part of Tampa, Florida. Haya has actually made substantial contribution to stogie manufacturing in the United States. Following his success, a lot more factories uprised in Tampa bay and some are still there making device made cigars. There is also a street in Tampa in Seminole Levels called after him.
In 1887 in order to promote their brand name Ignacio Haya and Serafin Sanchez commissioned than an extremely popular German printing business, Klingenberg to publish an advertising and marketing poster for their brand. At that time Klingenberg was one of the most respected company to have your labels publishes done by. Over the years the company produced thousands of stogie labels as well as several lots of prints as well as is well-known for originally printing the original H. Upmann label.
It is thought about that a handful of Sanchez Y Haya posters are still in circulation and few of them are in Klingenberg archives in Dortmund, Germany. As a result of its background, Sanchez Y Haya poster is thought about the most demanded poster among cigar souvenirs enthusiasts and also in order not to offer you a false impression I will not estimate any buck amounts. Lastly I will certainly claim that an evidence, indicating an original test print, of that poster is located at TNTCIGARS headquarters in Phoenix, AZ on 10th Street and Camelback Rd and also is a reward of stogie history. If you are ever in your area please drop in and also will enjoy to reveal you a few other great stuff in our collection.
