El Presidente Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Cigar box for the 1880 Presidential election, championing Democratic candidates Winfield Hancock and William English, who narrowly lost to Republicans James Garfield and Chester Arthur. Wooden box is decorated with Hancock & English on almost all sides and features a label from cigar manufacturer Otto Heizmann on the side panel. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamrandr Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Definitely a fascinating part of American history as well as cigar history. Companies couldn't get away with it these days. Imagine "Trump Coronas," or " Biden Perfectos." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teamrandr Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Chester Arthur was very wealthy and known to be a party animal who loved food, drinks and cigars. He took over after Garfield was assassinated. An interesting piece no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teamrandr Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I stand corrected. I figured it would lead to lawsuits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you become president, you lose a lot of right to your image and name, known as right of publicity. So it easy for anyone to make Trump cigarsSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
