This weekend, My wife and I went to an antibellum home/ bed & breakfast for our anniversary. One of the things that was cool, was the original homeowner's humidor. It looked kind of like a photo cube, covered in leather, with a photograph on each of the 4 sides. It had an elaborate THING on top. When the THING was rotated, the 4 walls of this "photo cube" (which was actually more like a tall rectagle than a square) would rotate, revealing 3 rings and bases in which to put cigars. In other words, it could hold 12 cigars, and it looked nothing like a humidor as we know them. Since there were no air conditioners back then (dehumidifiers), no humidification device was needed. (The humidity in South Louisiana averages in the 80's).I thought you all might find this interesting. I sure did. Of course, It doesn't take much to interest me....football...baseball....guitars....french fries...the three stooges......oh yeah, and original, pre civil war photo cube humidors!
