I am aware that White Owls are not considered a high quality cigar. I just found out that my great uncle (the man who raised my father) smoked white owls every day. If anyone can point me in the direction of where I can locate some vintage White Owls from the late 40's to early 60's(even just a couple) I would love to get them for my dad for Christmas. I don't think this is in violation of the rules, but if a moderator feels differently please let me know or delete or edit as necessary.

I have been searching like crazy and I have not had much luck. A source in the US or at least North America would probably be most helpful.

Dear topdiesel,

Try the site,"gothamcigarmuseum.com" and ask him .On this site there Is some Info on the White Owls and their makers.Go to :

CLEAR HAVANA, PRE EMBARGO & COLLECTIBLES

He also sells some cigars from that period.

Since they didn't have any on their site for sale I was surprised that they did indeed have what I was looking for. Thanks for the advice Guy.

That's a really cool thing to do for your father, topdiesel. Smells can trigger great memories. I treasure my childhood memories of visiting my grandfather in the summer and playing cribbage with him while he smoked his evening cigar. Great present.
