Blast from the past: White House Humidor

[El Presidente]

I thought this looked pretty cool 

 

This striking White House humidor is part of Montecristo's American Heritage Collection. Monecristo began production for the limited series the American Heritage Collection in 1995. The series featured four different types of humidors to honor American history. The series replicated famous monuments of Washington D.C. as humidors: the U.S. Capital, the White House, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Thomas Jefferson Memorial. Each humidor in the series was produced by hand and production was limited to only 500 humidors in each style. The humidor's exterior is made of resin composite, painted white with light grey accents, to match the look of the Aquia Creek sandstone of the real White House. The interior is lined with cedar and includes two shelves, each with two adjustable cedar dividers. The interior trays of the humidor can hold up to about 300 cigars, depending on the size of the cigars. The White House humidor opens up from the top using a set of three sturdy hinges. A heavy top assures a tight seal.

Very cool.

Would be cool if there was one in the Oval Office.  Over half the the presidents in the last 100 years have smoked.

Not a terrible price if it's Elie Bleu quality
