SmokingSkull Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 Back in May, there was a thread on this forum about a cigar box that was signed and inscribed by Fidel Castro in 1959, the year of the Revolution. I happened to buy the piece and said that I would post a bit more information, once I had researched it (there were many doubters). For anyone interested, here it is: http://cigarsanctum.com/fidel-castro-cigar-box-1959/ 2
