Have you ever fancied yourself as a collector? Everyone has his own collection these days. The more common kinds of collections involve key chains, die cast cars, caps, coins, and the like. But have you ever thought about collecting things related to cigars? I am not even talking about the actual cigars themselves. That is a bit too common, isn’t it?

There are so many things about cigars that you can actually collect, if you think about. How about cigar boxes? In different parts of the world, you can get cigars individually. But if you want to collect boxes, then you should get them in bundles. More than the cigars themselves, the boxes that they come in are works of art themselves. In fact, some people have made it their business to look for the most beautiful and unique cigar boxes that have been made.

How about humidors? This is another cigar-related item that can be collected. As cigars have been around for ages, so have humidors. Way back then, they needed humidors just as much as we need them today, and I am sure you know just how beautiful those old humidors are. More than simply serving their practical purpose, they were wonderful works of art. While the antique humidors might not work anymore today, they would still look wonderful in your display.

And have you thought about cigar bands? Cigar bands could be works of art as well. While some people throw them away, some keep them. You can also start keeping the best cigar bands and collecting them!
