Cardboard Cigarillo Boxes A National Cigar Museum Exhibit (c) Tony Hyman http://cigarhistory.info/Novelty_Boxes/Cigarillos.html Although you may find a box or two from the 1940’s, most of these small (roughly 4” x 5”) cardboard boxes date from the 1950’s and 60’s, the height of popularity for that size cigar. This exhibit makes no pretense of being high art or great packaging. It’s here for the record. Selection of cigarillos, all packed in cardboard boxes. Other brands exist.
