This vintage wood cigar box with a hinged lid and working lock humidor is titled 'INVINCIBLES DE BENSON AND HEDGES.' The condition appears excellent, with no significant damage. The hinged lid fits snugly, the lock works, and it's as sturdy as the day it was made. It may have been touched up before my time, but it still looks fantastic.
DID YOU KNOW? Benson & Hedges was founded in London in 1873 by Richard Benson and William Hedges, becoming known for high-quality cigarettes. The company's history includes its American branch's independence in 1928 and subsequent sale to Philip Morris in 1958, while the UK company was acquired by the Gallaher Group in 1955. The brand held a Royal Warrant from 1878 until 1999, and it later became a brand of Japan Tobacco after Japan Tobacco acquired the Gallaher Group.
