Thompson Miraflor Habano Cigar Box

This is a wooden, paper-wrapped rectangular cigar box used for Thompson Miraflor Habano cigars. The lid features a central lithograph of a woman in an oval frame, flanked by palm trees, floral arrangements, and golden medallions. The branding 'Miraflor' is featured prominently on a sweeping banner in the foreground, with 'Puros' and 'Finos' printed on either side above ornate crests. The background is a deep black, making the vibrant reds, golds, and greens of the artwork pop. The outer edges and sides of the box are adorned with decorative tape or paper seals that feature tropical floral patterns and recurring 'THOMPSON' and 'Flor Fina' text. Physically, the box appears to be constructed from thin cedar or plywood typical of the mid-to-late 20th-century mass-market production style. The condition shows minor wear, specifically some scuffing on the top surface, slight peeling at the corners of the decorative paper edges, and a noticeable horizontal gap where the lid meets the base. The graphic design evokes a classic Cuban aesthetic, although the Thompson brand is famously associated with Tampa, Florida, a historic hub for cigar manufacturing. The craftsmanship is industrial but decorative, intended for high-volume retail distribution rather than individual custom humidor use.
