Seems kind of plain for what I would imagine a king's humidor to be.
Very nice for me though, not at that price however.

Not made for the King of England. I believe that is the prince's seal given to goods made in England, not made for the king of England. I hope no moron buys that under the pretense that the king ever owned it :-)


The owner is also not accepting questions about the item. :-)

Gotta love Ebay!!!

I'm thinking of putting up some junk in the garage and saying it was once owned by someone famous. Maybe I can get a sucker to pay 250k for it.

I deal with people everyday who think they have real items that turn out to be fake. The saying "A sucker born each minute" is very true!

so the oldest it could be is 1924 from the label inside the door.
